“Whenever I'm trying to understand people that I don't understand,…” quote by Lucy Dacus — Download Open image

“Whenever I'm trying to understand people that I don't understand, or things in people or even in myself, I'll say, 'When did this negativity get here?' I try to think back to how I was raised to deal with things, and then consider how the person that I'm dealing with grew up.”
