Oh, so many things. So many. Like, worry, one thing. I used to worry so much, create all of these scenarios in my head. And I think that's like a double-edged sword.

You imprint that in a young child by building up his confidence. And that's one of the things I love about my boy. It's like he's so confident. That's something that I want to keep feeding him. Even on the song I wrote about him on my album, I said, I see my inner child in him is still the remnants. Will he lose it to the world as an imminent?
