No idea why but this just dawned on me now: I always thought to myself, "Gee, Henry is just so naturally well spoken and articulate, no wonder he's so great at speaking and writing. What a gift he has". I'm thinking now, it's the complete opposite. Spending a lifetime LEARNING to write lyrics in band, LEARNING to speak for shows, STUDYING others lyrics, STUDYING other peoples writing... he's learned most of it from scratch. Ya I'm sure maybe he's naturally outgoing/extroverted, but he's essentially been a student for 50 years developing and honing skills.
He's stated many times he's a solitary guy who doesn't love talking. He said a lot of his youth and young adult life was spent alone, and avoiding people.
He is all of us' Dad. We are Henry's surrogate children. I'm gonna go cry in my pillow in gratitude now. Wait. No, I'm just gonna write on my book more and send Henry a Father's Day card. That.
That’s a bold statement, especially since the man has wholeheartedly said that he would not be a good dad. Don’t forget, we always see Henry at his brightest; seldom do we see him at his worsts
Didn't know I liked henry. Lived in north redondo and used to help push black flags van when it wouldn't start. Thought chuck dukowski was an asshole cause he didn't say thank you one day. I like Henry tho

Wise words man, couldn't have said it better myself.
If there's one thing that Rollins is not then it's being "naturally outgoing/extroverted".
Perhaps his writing is what has made him the speaker he is.

These sorts of realizations are so liberating, it shows that anybody can become great at almost anything with enough practice and passion!
Simple, yet motivating...
Henry thank you those words just hit me right in the chest.
That't right... simple but so satisfying
... sometimes you forget about things like that...
Hank's my hero. Full stop.
This was beautifully put.
He would have been a good dad

Dre Horvath he’s more my Punk rock uncle to me...

In a world where Western overpopulation has brought 'the ecocide' true heroes _don't_ have children
