I’m 15 and reading a book meant for second-year med students.
Why?
Because it’s fascinating.
Because the human body is a complete mystery. But it’s MY mystery.
Because I love knowing things I’m not supposed to know yet.
Because reading is my only drug.
Today my doctor asked me if I was planning to become one.
I smiled.
The answer is yes.
The answer is always yes.
The answer will probably stay “yes” even if life doesn’t let me.
