And now we're back in a Zen pit culture and we're back in like
all of your peers having facelifts and having all the different things done.
I still, I mean, it was, there was no outlet for you to have any control over your own narrative back then.
Like now you actually have a place where you can immediately offer a rebuttal.
I think that was what shifted me into finding immovable shit, something that people can't take from me.
My inner peace cannot be taken from me.
I've learned to live a cheaper lifestyle so that if my money goes away or when my money goes away, because I'm so fucking outspoken.
I'm pre-adaptive now to defensively adaptive, but in a way that I find deeply satisfying to creating a world, a community and a life that no one can take from me because everything did get taken from me for a while.
um not at the scale and it was global when it happened to me but not at the scale of of what happened to you but it doesn't and no but the point is is that but but it's so amazing that you're aware of that terror and you must continue to you can't just think that away and you can't even crystal and kumbaya or somatic therapy it away those are all
important but you have to actually actively build a world that nobody can take from you because if you can just protect your fucking mind and your body I know from having lost my mind and then lost control over my body that those suddenly came into focus as the two most important things that I will ever have and so now that I've got that shit on lock provided I stop falling over on marble laughing
I feel, and I think this is what I resonate, an unshakable sense of self.
And I think it's confusing to people because they're like, where does this come from?
What are you doing on the outside to create it?
I've actually started to take the outside world appearance, everything with a pinch of salt.
I'll participate in a kind of fair weather way, but my shit is so simple.
