(smashing my brains out on the past)

The past is vital... it is who we are. You can't forget the past, it's always there. Learning from it is how we move forward with style.

In order to learn, you can't block it out.

The past is vital.

No, don't get stuck there. It's not good to let your past hold you back... to let your "style" become one of fear, but blocking out the past is just as damning as getting stuck in it.

You may think that your "poor little rich kid" past is of no consequence, but I dare say there are many "poor little rich kids" alive today that might benefit from being able to identify with someone. Your pain is/was your pain. It doesn't hurt any more or any less because of someone else's pain.

My monster used to say, "If your feet are cold, just think about the poor guy without feet."

...and that warms my feet up, how?
