Aaron Vnuk is strong. His physical size is most readily apparent, but as one gets to know him, the strength of his mind and spirit become more evident. His strength flows like a relentless river that cannot be stopped by the obstacles of life.

Aaron knows it wasn’t always this way. His river almost ran dry the day he went blind. As a young adult, Aaron’s world plummeted into darkness when he lost his eyesight to a devastating condition called Retinitis Pigmentosa. Aaron knew he had a decision to make. He had to choose how he was going to live the rest of his life. He could have made excuses. He could have felt sorry for himself. He could have put his hand out for assistance so others could pay for his misfortune. He could have cast blame. He could have refused to take responsibility. Instead, he chose to be an example that would inspire and uplift others.

Aaron learned how to overcome adversity, build resilience, and embrace a discipline that would crush barriers like a broken dam. When Aaron faced the raging river, he didn’t crumple like a willow. He became an oak.
