He right. You can hear the difference in how he speaks and articulate's himself. But notice that's the only thing he spoke abt. Not abt family or anything else, even ATLEAST first. Why? Because like he said, it took him to get injured to feel this way about himself with just his speech alone. It's sad it always takes us THAT much energy to conquer one thing, and also, to get hurt in some way, to fall out of love for the things we love the most; because pain forces us to sit and stare at it from the outside, looking in; and we eventually make excuses abt WHY, what we once loved, we don't love anymore, because our drive and performance has changed and we're too afraid to say that and STILL push. The world's energy that it transfers into us, and what we accept, is crazy. You right DR, but don't give up and let the pain beat chu. And that's for all us. Tell the pain it's right and STILL do what it told you NOT to do. And that's win.
