Storyboard Text
- FAVORITE QUOTE FROM GHOST BY JASON REYNOLDS
- I think this quote means that we all have to reconcile with our past: where we come from and the things that have happened to us. Our experiences help to shape who we are. But they don't define us. No matter what has happened to us, we can choose who we want to be, and carve out a path to make our dreams come true.
- “And the same thing running did for me, I felt like it could do for you ... Show you that you can’t run away from who you are, but what you can do is run toward who you want to be.” - Coach to Ghost, Ch. 9
