When I Was Much Younger And Still

Even If Kids Don't Love Gymnastics, If They Start At Any Age With Some Classes, They Can Learn So Many Different Things - They Can Build A Lot Of Character, Strength, Flexibility, And Courage. Hopefully, They Can Also Develop A Sense Of Fearlessness.

At The 2012 Olympic Trials, I Wanted To Make A Second Olympic Team. I Fell Face First, And In A Blink Of An Eye, My Dreams Of Competing In A Second Olympics Were Over. Even So, I Got Up, Finished My Routine, And Saw Twenty Thousand People Cheering. It Was My First Standing Ovation.

I've Missed Being Able To Flip In The Air, Flip On The Beam And Swing On The Bars.

I've Had To Learn Through Experiences Not To Be Afraid To Fail. You Don't Know What The Future Holds For You. You Can Hope Your Dreams Come True, But You Have To Be Fearless. I Don't Want To Look Back And Think, What If?

I Also Want To Get Out There In The World And Do Some Acting And Fashion And Modeling.
