Dr. John A. King explains why he keeps moving forward: to become a living example that others can look to for inspiration. He wants to show that you can be more than the sum of your parts and more than your past, offering hope to people struggling this season.
I had someone ask me just recently what it is that keeps me going, keeps me motivated. And I think because I want to be that guy, that guy that overcame all that stuff and saw his life turn around for good and people looked at his light and thought, man, if that guy can make it, so can I. Um, and it sucks, man. What we deal with on a daily basis sucks. But I don't— I want to be more than the sum of my parts, you know. I want to be more than my past. And maybe that's a thought for you coming into this Christmas, because there's a whole lot of people out there who are doing it tough and You're going to have a chance to show them that there's hope at the end of this particular tunnel. Just a thought.
