"Its okay to let it out every now an then. Never be ashamed of your storm. Storms always pass."

He'll cook with you, build that creativity, making good ol' homemade foods.
"Good craft, always has soul poured into the canvas. Your canvas still has that soul, it never left. Even if you don't see it. Its magnificent, shifts like the rainbow after a hurricane. Its colors shine, vibrant. Your colors are unique. No matter how much they shine, no matter how dull."

The scars on your arms or hands. He'd ignore em, he doesn't judge you, he offer coping strategies and comfort you. He's very patient.
His words are like poetry to you, empowering and supportive whenever you have bad moments:
" There's a time and place to pick your battles. At times we gotta walk away. Although. When all options are lost, there'd be a time and place to defend ourselves."
"People gossip about you only to gain nothing out of it, its like a sport to them. They don't care about common decency, nor respect the lines of its rules. Let alone have real meaningful, respectful conversations to get to know a person before making assumptions. You're not a ball to be tossed around, you're a priceless scroll to be held and be known."
"If I'm not here to fight for you. There will be a time, you gotta fight for yourself. That's what inner strength is. "
