How many answers did you change as you grew up? We don&#8217;t know how Jonny Kim answered when he was growing up, and who knows if he ever thought he would one day find himself doing what many children dream of doing: astronaut. But the great thing about this story is that before he got there, his life held other surprises for him. To which he always responded well, no matter how heavy some of them really were. You never know if you will be an astronaut someday.  <\/p>\n<p> And not only there.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<div id=\"youtube2-YiMAB1bINGc\" class=\"youtube-wrap\" data-attrs=\"{\"videoId\":\"YiMAB1bINGc\",\"startTime\":null,\"endTime\":null}\" data-component-name=\"Youtube2ToDOM\">\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"youtube-inner\">\n<p>Social media has given us the &#8220;chance&#8221; to witness the lives of thousands of people.

He is only 40 years old but has already achieved extraordinary things. He was a Navy Seal soldier, then graduated from Harvard Medical School, and finally was chosen by NASA as an astronaut.  <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><em>That is, I&#8217;m turning 37 this year and I still haven&#8217;t learned how to fold t-shirts properly <\/em>\ud83d\ude05<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>His seems to be a path of increasing success, planned in detail. But this is not the case.<\/p>\n<p>Born in 1984 in Los Angeles to a South Korean immigrant family, his father ran a liquor store, and his mother was a nurse. Jonny grows up with an alcoholic and abusive father. He beats his wife and sometimes, when he is not satisfied, he and his brother as well.<br \/>\nThey are terrified. In 2006 the situation comes to a head when the father with a rifle tries to take out the whole family, but is killed by a police gunshot. Somehow Johnny is saved. But he is a traumatized boy.  <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I was a scared kid. I was afraid of the world, afraid of relationships, afraid to talk to people, afraid to go to school, afraid to have my own opinions, to speak out or to fight for what I believed was right.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"pencraft pc-display-flex pc-alignItems-center pc-position-absolute pc-reset header-anchor-parent\">\n<div class=\"pencraft pc-display-contents pc-reset _pubTheme_c2zmd_1\">\n<div id=\"\u00a7ero-un-ragazzino-spaventato-avevo-paura-del-mondo-paura-delle-relazioni-paura-di-parlare-con-le-persone-di-andare-a-scuola-di-avere-le-mie-opinioni-di-parlare-apertamente-o-di-lottare-per-cio-che-credevo-fosse-giusto\" class=\"pencraft pc-reset header-anchor offset-top\"><\/div>\n<p><button class=\"pencraft pc-reset pencraft _iconButton2_1j1xk_684 _iconButtonBase_1j1xk_174 _buttonBase_1j1xk_1 _buttonNew_1j1xk_88 _size_sm_1j1xk_149 _priority_secondary_1j1xk_68\" tabindex=\"0\" type=\"button\" data-href=\"https:\/\/runlovers.substack.com\/i\/154846230\/ero-un-ragazzino-spaventato-avevo-paura-del-mondo-paura-delle-relazioni-paura-di-parlare-con-le-persone-di-andare-a-scuola-di-avere-le-mie-opinioni-di-parlare-apertamente-o-di-lottare-per-cio-che-credevo-fosse-giusto\"><\/button><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, BlinkMacSystemFont, -apple-system, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\">By chance at age 16, he discovered the existence of the <\/span><em style=\"font-family: Verdana, BlinkMacSystemFont, -apple-system, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\">Navy Seals<\/em><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, BlinkMacSystemFont, -apple-system, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\">, the legendary American special forces. <\/span> <span style=\"font-family: Verdana, BlinkMacSystemFont, -apple-system, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\">To be part of it becomes his dream.

He loses a great friend in a firefight. <strong>Maybe he doesn&#8217;t belong there<\/strong>. He decides to change his life: he wants to specialize in emergency medicine. He enrolls in college in San Diego and in 2016 he specializes at Harvard. In the meantime, he gets married and starts a family. She starts working as a physician in Massachusetts. Then he meets Scott Parazynski, a U.S. astronaut who puts it in his head that his military and medical skills would be ideal for NASA programs. He participates in the very difficult selections. He passes them. Along with 17 other astronauts, he begins training for a space mission scheduled for 2025. Life almost never goes according to our predictions. Sometimes, this can also be fortunate. <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"header-anchor-post\">&#8220;I didn&#8217;t plan any of this.
