I'm going to write a book, continue acting, continue motivational speaking and just share with people who I am and what I've learned in my second chance of life and pass it on to people in their first chance of life.
Not every kid plays football, basketball. Running can be a source to vent and let things out.
I love helping out good people who are doing good things.
Running for me is a sport. It's not a joke. It's serious.
I've learned in my life that it's important to be able to step outside your comfort zone and be challenged with something you're not familiar or accustomed to. That challenge will allow you to see what you can do.

There are a lot of people who can be classified as heroes and do great things and inspire me.
My mother is my hero.

I don't have a weapon in my hand, and I don't have a uniform on my body, but my uniform now is my scars and weapon is my words, so I'm still serving.
When the body doesn't want to go on, the mind continues to fight.
In this life, all you need is for someone to believe in you.
Dancing is a beautiful thing.
It's hard for people sometimes to relate to me. They weren't in the military, they weren't injured overseas in Iraq, they weren't burned, they didn't go through 33 surgeries, or two and a half years in the hospital.
