I don't want to hurt anybody's feelings I think people that that hurt people's feeling even if you justify it you know you did something and I think that thing that ****s with your head and it devalues you in your own eyes you're not a hero in your own eyes you're not you're not someone who you respect you know you're doing what you got to do to get by but ultimately you're not respecting yourself and I think we all have a certain amount of appreciation and respect for hero figures you know like we all look at like the guy who never lies and always does the right thing and ****ing helps everybody out and that's the John Wayne character you know that's that's the ultimate hero and when you look at your own life and you don't stack up you're a thief you stole money from your wife's purse and you know you don't want to smoke cigarettes but you ****ing have to you can't deal with the stress you smoke you devalue yourself you slowly start devaluing yourself you look at yourself you realize that if you were judging yourself you would judge yourself unfavorably if you're stealing if you're hurting people you're damned 100 percent so no matter who you you can't pretend you're the the hero of your story you can't you have to be the hero of your own story and you can do that you can be the hero of your own story that woke up today you could be the hero of your own story that at forty years of age stopped got out of bed and said I'm not doing this anymore I'm doing this day 100 I am gonna figure this out and I wanna do it only by my instincts and only by my morals and my ideals and my mind and I'm gonna be dead honest with myself because I'm realizing this is not gonna last forever and I'm gonna be it the nicest ****ing human being to everyone I meet possibly and I'm gonna get myself in shape but I'm gonna eat healthy and I'm gonna do this because this is this is me now I decide that this is me and people have to realize that you are not your past you are not all the times you ****ed up you are not all the times you couldn't get it up you're not all the times you were drunk and you know and you throw up in someone's car that's not you but you you are the person who's learned from a great deal of experiences that if you learn correctly and if you process them correctly you'll have a happier life you know
