“If you're going to live your life for these thoughts of appeasing your parents and other people, then when they pass away, all you have left is resentment and pain and sadness. So you gotta be selfish because then when it can be selfish, you can give back in the way that you want to give. Now I have more love to share with people versus before I was just clinging onto whatever little I could to protect myself from the misery.”
