this guy is a god in my book
instead of having me arrested, he educated me and rehabilitated me better than any juvie hall would have.
I'm 24, I've made a nice little place for myself in this world, but it takes hitting bottom to appreciate what you have when you do have it.

not everyone can be as fortunate to learn a good lesson from a bad situation.. some people still want the instant payoff, the quick hit, that is perpetuated all the time in media.
