You know, like I can see, especially now my daughter who's 26, who's really not a risk taker.
I can see how much of a risk taker I was.
And my brother Bill was like that too.
Well, I guess maybe in some ways you could say we all were.
We got our kicks from having to conform to the world and the things we had to make ourselves do.
We had an outlet for that that was either putting ourselves at risk by, in my case, taking the stuff that did not belong to me.
Or for my brother, he would do physical acts of things.
He would throw himself on his bike over a hill.
He would do crazy physical things.
Now I can just see how much of a thrill and then you get away with it.
So it's like, I remember just thinking at the time, like I'm doing something for me right now.
Like, and so to me, that says I was doing a lot of things in my life that weren't for me really.
And then I had to find some way that I did something for me.
