I think the older you get, the more you realize that, oh wow, I can traverse unbelievable challenges and controversies.

I can't fucking wait.

I can't fucking wait.

And you realize that you don't die on the other side of it.

The worst part of youth is not knowing what's going to happen when the shit hits the fan.

When the shit hits the fan and you get older, you realize, oh, you just clean the fan or buy another one for fuck's sake.

Does that make sense?

So it's really not, it's not coming from a place of I'm so great.

It's coming from a place of I don't fucking have to be.

And everyone can fuck off.

I mean, it must have just taken forever for you to even grasp your identity outside of the world's perception.

You must still be on a journey of that.

Yeah, of course.

That makes complete sense.

I was a little older than you when I was dragged into the global pylon for daring to have a fucking opinion.

But it is really destabilizing.

It's a choice you make.

It's a choice you make that you then work on every single day.

Because I still have the flinch and the instinct to

to fawn and to falter and to people please.
