I can’t stop it, you know that. It’s part of me. My father could do it, hell, maybe his father could do it. It has to be genetic, as much a part of my DNA as the color of my hair. The point is not so much why or how it happens, but what the purpose of it is. What is it I’m supposed to do? And does anything I do make a difference?
