Reflection; what this quote means to me is to never give up no matter what your obstacle is. For example I've been treated like dirt before I've even been kicked out of several schools for wrong choices I've made but that has not stopped me because I am still in this game I call striving for success I've never let what people think of me stop me because I am who I am because of a choices I've made across my years.

I would want to become this because it means I would learn more about my eyes. This would also mean I would further my studies about the social anatomy of an eye.
