There's a belief where I'm from that everyone can succeed if they work hard enough, but it's largely a lie. Success is different for every person, just like the things that bring us happiness are different when you stop to look at them closely. And for me, there was never any scenario at home where I could have had the success that would have brought me happiness.
Everything I ever wanted and could never have at home is here on the Barge.
