    You figured out what to do in life and landed a nice career? Nice!

    You’re still single? That really sucks.

    Our family blew up? Dad’s gone? Oh…

    At 19, it was right before a rough few years. My parents went through a messy and drawn-out divorce that I was dragged through the middle of, and ended with my dad dying. Those events helped me figure out who I was and ultimately led me to where I am today, which is in a pretty good spot, but it was a terrible price to pay.
