Social worker: you say everyone hates you but I see no evidence of that.
Me: I’m supposed to be the guy who makes it all better. I’m supposed to carry the world on my shoulder, and I can say that I did my time doing that. I paid it forward. I did the right thing. And you know what? I was doing my bit to make the world a safer place. They hated me anyway. They wanted what I had. So I thought well maybe they could do better than me. I’m nothing much. I gave up. I let them get what they wanted. But guess what? They weren’t happy. Ever since then it’s been hell. It’s like Hitlers plans were all coming true, we’ve gone from live and let live to self perpetuating hatred. And the world loves so much to make a villain. Is that my fault? For giving up? I’m supposed to be the one who makes things better. But they treat me as though I’m the one inflicting all this on them. I’m not! I just failed to stop it.
