The context of the following conversation is Kai was sitting on the street with a cap infront of them at their feet and asked the passer by for money.:
Kai says I've been panhandling for so long that it is easy for me..
The friend responds That is sad to say. You sit there with the cap by your feet asking for money. That is sad..
Kai responds It is not sad. That is my daily life.  See I just asked that guy for his spare change.  I am not ashamed..
The friend responds Well you do you my friend..
Kai responds I will. I will keep on hustling everyday..
