Moment of Vulnerability: Solitude and Innerstanding are my Vices

And something that I realized is that they tell you, like, well, if you didn't have a good mom or dad, like, well, you could be a better parent when you become a parent. Well, when it comes to love, it doesn't matter how well you love other people. It doesn't matter how much you give to other people, the things that you want returned to you. That doesn't guarantee that you're going to get it from that person

Hey Blair, I want to acknowledge your comment about everything is relative. You know, craving something that other people have and they might be craving what you have, I think that's a real mental, gymnastic kind of moment that absolutely I want to acknowledge because it should never diminish your discomfort. It's the duality that's so fascinating when we're lonely and we're craving something like completely consuming and beautiful to wrap us that's in its own world

You. No, thank you. You said that magic word. The duality, or really the phrase, the duality of life. I've lived there since I was little. And it's lonely. And I find really admitting that to myself because I finally life slowed down so much. So that moment, I mean, it was a moment. It was just me having a thought and then me recording in real time. But you hit it right on the money. It's the duality of life

You. Lord bless you, baby. Sound just like I used to be when I was younger telling my stories telling stories that no one believed they was all real, nothing made up

Again, Blair, I just love how even in the midst of your own personal pain, you still have gratitude for the life that you have. It's a beautiful thing that most people don't have. And let me tell you, yeah, I've spent a lot of my life cherishing and just trying to get as much solitude as I possibly can. And it's like this moment right now. It's 1235 here. My kids are in bed and my wife's asleep
