L: where did that anger come from, in the first place?
D: I’d say my upbringing, my absentee father. The society we were living in as a whole. But really it was probably just me. I weaponized my insecurities and lashed out at those not being forced into the same mold as I was. I saw my privilege and the responsibilities that came with it as a curse. It never occurred to me, or I just didn’t care, that those without that privilege had it so much worse.
L: and now?
D: (looks at her) im going to take that privilege and do what I want with it, which will be to help others.
C: ha.
