There's a quote that perfectly encapsulates why I'm studying to become a physical therapist clinician and researcher and can't wait to begin my career: "The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in a person's determination."
That comes from Tommy Lasorda, the longtime manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers and a member of the National Baseball Hall of Fame. He wasn't speaking specifically of sports, but his background ties in nicely with the story I'm about to tell, which culminated on a softball field.
