Christopher Reeve will always be Superman to me.

"How many neuroscientists does it take to change a lightbulb? Answer: None-after years of tireless research they finally taught mice how to change a lightbulb for them!" -Christopher Reeve

Christopher Reeve was born today and I thought his joke about the mice was pretty funny. That man really inspired me because he never gave up and he showed me what it means to be brave. I think in that sense the fact that he played the role of Superman in the movies is very fitting for him. It's not just because he found ways to rise above the spinal cord injury, it's also because he worked hard to advocate for others who faced the same difficulties he faced. He'll always be Superman to me.
