It's rigor mortis of the mind.

It's being stuck in past slights, past disrespects, past traumas, and it doesn't let you go.

The reason that people embrace victimhood, that we embrace victimhood, is because it gives you the right to feel like, you had the audacity to do that to me?

And I'm so grateful that I've gotten to the age and the maturity that I know the difference.

And so, again, suffering's universal.

Stuff happens.

And I keep taking these losses.

I keep having these traumatic events happen to me.

But in the end, I believe in good.

I believe in a higher power.

I believe in that.

sooner or later, the truth's going to come out.

And I'm going to have that opportunity to see life after this.

And in the meantime, I'm like, when these things happen, I'm just like, man, that hurt.

Okay, what's next?

And when I'm able to do that,

They're not torturing me.

They're not making me suffer in a way that I think some people who do support the death penalty want you to.

Because it's not enough for them just to murder you, right?

Take your life.
