Perspective
Check out the amazing gymnastics routine below by UCLA student Katelyn Ohashi. Not only will you be awed by her strength and abilities, but you can't help but notice her intense joy in performing. What you may not know is that she was once an Olympic hopeful, but injuries caused her to reevaluate that dream. She decided to instead focus her energy on making the most of her college career. I respect the fact that she didn't let her setbacks define her - she moved on and found happiness. That's what I call strength!
