You are not what happened to you, you are what you choose to become - Carl Jung

TLDR;

• We all have pain - in fact, it’s a necessary guarantee in life

• I was bullied

• I lived in a group home and then on welfare

• I resorted to selling drugs

• Swim around in your pain long enough and you’ll drown

• Creation is born of destruction

• Use your pain as fuel to do better. That’s what it’s there for
