I am so glad to see him get out and do something he enjoys doing rather than stewing on "what could be" and "what is". Good for you, Keenan! You are a true inspiration to myself. You made me realize that my common disability is nothing worth stopping my life over, and to reach higher. I should not have spent so much time being upset, and should have been doing something better for myself. Keep up the amazing work. You have many people admiring you for how strong and truly talented you are!
