WISDOMS

• It was more like, I think, the thought developed as a way to really test myself and just to see what I'm worth. Like if I didn't actually quit on something, what was possible.

• The downs are some of the hardest parts.

• Logistically, for everyone, it's all about managing the amount of time.

• {The CDT} Is cruel in that regard, but also has just you go through the most beautiful sections that I've ever seen.

• I think when I'm struggling in my life now, I kinda reminisce about the shittier times that I had out there. And just try to put it in perspective so that I can at least try and put a more positive spin on what's happening to me now.

• What you don't think is believable can be made believable if you continue to work at it like anything.

• The good things in life, I think, that are worth having are supposed to be hard to get.

• It's so easy to be so hard on yourself when you're alone.
