Yeah, but with all these masks, do we even know who we are? Deep breath, kid. We are you—a father, husband, son, friend. I hear you, but it feels like the wheels are coming off. Are we good enough? Are we fooling everyone? The only fools are the ones who don’t see how much you give and how little you ask for in return. Alright. Let's go...

- Escape to what? Greener pastures? What may seem greener from the outside can be scorched and arid when experienced from within. Be alive, but be smart. Don't be fooled by false appearances. Adversity & suffering build stronger foundations.
- Family - The definition of true wealth. Realizing that our loved ones hold the keys to our fortune is the most freeing moment we will experience. All other external influences fade to black, and our family shines in the forefront. Bask in your wealth

Revision
