I had to give up my childhood dream of becoming an Olympic athlete.



"A summer memory.. I'll have to say the summer I injured my leg. When I was in college, I won second place in the national broad-jump competition, but at the same time I hurt my ligament really badly. So I had to give up my childhood dream of becoming an Olympic athlete."
"Have you been in a wheel chair ever since?"
"No I think that was 10 years ago. My left leg. The right one's alright, it's just the left."
"Do you have a dream now?"
"Perhaps... more pension?"
