So how do you get past it?

Some people they stay in that pain forever, ’cause they don’t think anyone else will believe them or understand what they went through.

You tell yourself,

“I’m still here. And I’ll be here tomorrow and the day after. And it wasn’t my fault.”

‘Cause that’s the deal we make with the world every time we get out of bed in the morning.

“Hurt me all you want, but the bastards don’t get to win!”

~Father Marcus, The Exorcist: The Next Chapter
