Courage is hard. I'm just saying I think that the fear of having to take on all that responsibility or feel like you have to take on all that responsibility can be very detrimental to a millennial and say like I don't want to do that so therefore like I'm not gonna get married and I'm not gonna have kids courage is hard john
