strong inspiration exercise
Having a moment of clarity was one thing; I'd had moments like that before. It had to be followed with a dedicated push of daily exercise. It's a trite axiom, but practice DOES make perfect. If you want to be a strong swimmer or an accomplished musician, you have to practice. It's the same with sobriety, though the stakes are higher. If you don't practice your program every day, you're putting yourself in a position where you could fly out of the orbit one more time.
father conservative upbringing
My father rebelled ferociously against his conservative upbringing where his father physically abused him.
thinking land bullshit
Why should we think nudity is such a revolting thing in a land where there is so much violence and corruption and racism and hatred? Nudity seems like a welcome relief from all the bullshit in life.
feel-better jumping years
The good news is that by the second year, those cravings were about as half as frequent, and by the third year, half as much again. I'm still a little bent, a little crooked, but all things crooked, I can't complain. After all those years of all kinds of abuse and crashing into trees at eighty miles an hour and jumping off buildings and living through overdoses and liver disease, I feel better now than I did ten years ago. I might have some scar tissue, but that's alright, I'm still making progress.
fun addiction people
It takes away a lot of the thrill of killing yourself when people are looking for you and you're disappointing them, because it is a lot of fun when you're out there killing yourself.
artist media color
Music itself was color-blind but the media and the radio stations segregate it based on their perceptions of the artists.
writing mind substance
Writing music always happened for me in periods when I wasn't under the influence of mind-altering substance.
tattoo night hundred
I've got used to touring. If you make calculations of the nights spent in hotels in my life, multiplied by the tattoos I have for hundred.
light fire competition
I wish there were more good new bands that would light a fire and offer a little friendly competition that would be welcomed.
people childhood drug
I knew there was never anyone to blame when people get into drugs. They're always responsible for their own behavior, and it's not the dealer, it's not the friend, it's not the bad influence, it's not the childhood.
love-and-respect friend-love feels
I would consider him definitely one of my very best friends and I know he feels the same about me. We have a lot of love and respect.
eye people zombie
I had seen these transformations, people who had lost their will to live, coming back from their zombie states and radiating a new life force from their eyes.
balance littles way
We've just learned how to balance ourselves a little better so that we're happier way more of the time than not, and, you know, being happy is a radical and desirable act if you ask me.
water feel-good surfing
I discovered surfing, which I absolutely fell in love with. That feels good and kind of keeps your body aligned, so does the salt water.
