While he was listening to her words, quietly, his expression seemed to brighten a little. She made a good point - having experience to back him up, made his words more valid. A quiet chuckle escaped, briefly, and then he was nodding, "You're right... I've told some people that I wouldn't trade the things I've been through, since they're the reason I am who I am, today. Someone I wouldn't trade for anything, because I'd rather be me...than anyone else."
