It's such a short time we here. It's a blip of time, so don't look back and wish you would've, could've, should've did anything, man. Go out here and get it. Just know that you got to go through it just to get to it. So everybody that's going through something, just know that it's all temporary. That's the best and worst part of life is that it's all temporary." Click the "Via" link down below at the end of the article to see the full video.
