And for me, I just started to think, what is the point if I'm not treating this the way?

I can't control the fact that my parents are dead.

I can't control the fact that, you know, life is fleeting and, you know, I've had friends die and all these different things.

And, you know, or even like the mistakes that happened, getting cheated on or just random stuff that has happened in my life.

And then I start to realize if...

Everything in life is a way to another thing.

What happens to you is a byproduct of a decision that someone made, and your reaction is what follows, right?

And for me, if I lose someone, it teaches me something in some aspect of life.

If I make a mistake on stage, I truly think that that's something because I need to learn.

Mistakes are only important if you learn from them, and if you don't, it's a habit.

Mm-hmm.

And so I've just really stressed that aspect of my life every day of, you know, growing.

Because what's the point of living if you can't grow?

What's the point of living if you can't constantly try and become a better person?

The one thing I know about my dad, and I don't know much because he died when I was a kid.

Everyone I ask says he was the nicest person ever.

Says he was the kindest person ever.

Says he was a light when he walked through a room and everything.

I often think of when I die, what is someone going to say about me, you know?

And so for me, you know, I've always just strived and chased that ability to be like my dad.
