P.S. I had nothing to do with the making of this video. I'm just a fan who found this on the web and thought it deserved to be seen by as many people as possible.

"The information man's eyes grab me and then shift back and forth like mopping floors with the sweat I sweat in the battles against myself." GOD DAMN!!!

What I love about this specific piece, is that there's so much to wrap your head around. Gets you thinking. Pure genius.

@Littlelily502 No argument there. So many people can live their lives by giving advice that they cannot live by, but if everyone gave the same advice to everyone they met with a Simple "Love yourself more then any other person" the world would be a better place.

because even at your worst, you are fucking incredible, so return to yourself, even if you're already there, because no matter where you go or how hard you try, or what you do, the only person you will ever get to be, and i know it, thank god, is YOU. that is the most beautiful line i have ever heard in anything.
