JK Rowling speaks about the fringe benefits of failure and the importance of imagination.
Her sentiments and morsels of wisdom struck a chord with me. I believe that some of her words and proclamations will resonate with me for a long time.

I wish she spoke at my commencement...

For most of my life JK Rowling's words have been my guide. She reached out to many through Harry Potter. I wish that one day I could be such an influential writer.

Until then, I will continue along the path of medical school. Here I have the assurance that one day my actions will at least help a few people.
