[from jim, not the horse - It’s like the old saying goes: You do it to yourself and that’s what really hurts. You do it to yourself, just you and no one else]
Stop hitting yourself. Stop hitting yourself. Life seems to be about choosing which stick you want to hit yourself with and then trying to figure out how to put it down before the darkness comes that doesn't go away.
