I was randomly working at a bank as a teller and bouncing around different jobs, watching this thing on TV while I was working. People coming in just distraught, going like, what the hell is happening? That's where I was at. I remember thinking, I don't know why I feel this, but I want to go join the military. Because now I know. There was no way for me to have any more validation.

Service of others is part of my purpose. But I realized that the truth was I did that for validation. I wanted to go be part of something that I knew was like the most, the highest level of validation if you can get through. And it was like, there was always this concept, like this conceptual dream to go, if I make it, I made it. Now I'm in this world of validation. I'm accepted for good.
