I Went Through Some Tough Times Because If You're Used To Having A Voice In Contemporary Culture And All Of Sudden, You Don't Have That Voice, You Don't Have That Outlet. I Didn't Appreciate That. I Didn't Understand How Important That Was To Me. And All Of A Sudden, After Investing All This Time And Energy, I Had No Identity. I Didn't Know Who I Was. I Didn't Know What I Had To Say. I Didn't Have A Way To Say It. It Was Very Painful.

I Went Through Some Tough Times Because If You're Used To Having A Voice In Contemporary Culture And All Of Sudden, You Don't Have That Voice, You Don't Have That Outlet. I Didn't Appreciate That. I Didn't Understand How Important That Was To Me. And All Of A Sudden, After Investing All This Time And Energy, I Had No Identity. I Didn't Know Who I Was. I Didn't Know What I Had To Say. I Didn't Have A Way To Say It. It Was Very Painful.

Tough Times

I Was Lucky Enough To Have Had Great Success Early On In Life; To Have Had All The Things The Material World Can Offer. And Yet, I Realized That What I Had Actually Neglected Was The More Spiritual Side Of Myself, Which Has Always Been There. But It's Easy For Us In Our Culture To Become Consumed In A Sense By Materialism. Now Materialism Is Fine. We Live In A Material World. I'm Not Saying That Beautiful Things Don't Enhance Our Lives. But, In Our Culture, We're Never Happy.
