Taylor's presentation itself is a gem, and will have you alternating between tears and laughing out loud. And you'll learn something powerful about human resiliency from her experience, and the outcome.

That doesn't make adversity any easier; it only makes it more meaningful." <br /> -- Dan Millman <br /><br />"When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn." <br /> -- Harriet Beecher Stowe <br /><br />"Adversity has the effect of eliciting talents which, in prosperous circumstances, would have lain dormant."<br /> -- Horace (Quinus Horatius Flaccus) <br /><br />"Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved. . . . Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it. <br /> -- Helen Keller<br /><br />"In the depths of winter, I discovered in me an invincible summer" <br />Albert Camus<br />--------------------<br /><br /><br />Do take a few minutes to watch the movie.
