> I felt more sorry for myself than I did for him.
Haha, yeah, I understand that one. When I f*ck*d up my feet and they were saying I'd probably never walk without crutches one of the mental health nurses was all like 'your life is going to be really hard and painful now' and I just couldn't believe it. I was like... 'it was f*ck*ng hard and painful before'. She looked surprised.
I tell you... Physical pain is nothing. Well, no, that isn't quite true. It sucks. Pretty bad. But mental pain... Brings its own additional aspect of suffering. I don't feel sorry for myself about my feet (much). But I feel pretty f*ck*ng sorry for myself for the mental hell on earth much of my life has felt like being.
What you did was a nice thing... Did it help, in a way? To do something nice for him, I mean?
