“The fucking regret, and guilt. These things - Don’t let anyone ever say to you, ‘you shouldn’t regret anything’. Don’t do that, don’t. You regret what you fucking want. Use that regret, for anything, anything you want - you can use it, OK.”

Use it to wake up tomorrow and do things better.

I have this really great drawing by Roy Bautista I bought - it hangs across from my bed and when I fall asleep it is the last thing I see. It is a maniacal drawing of hands, faces, lines - a mess of graphite. You can just barely make out the lettering in the center of this gigantic drawing (it is over 5ft long):

“until the sun sets I reset sin”

I love it.

Every morning it reminds me - I have 24 hours. I have 24 beautiful hours to be human. To make mistakes, to learn from them and to, hopefully, get one more day…..to try it again.
