Shameen is a quiet, confident man, most of the time, slow to anger and quick to laugh. His love for his wife is something he demonstrates, rather than displays. He's more likely to show his feelings for her by ensuring she has a hot, fresh meal waiting for her after work, rather than a cold piece of jewelry.

Your father sounds like a strong man. As a parent, I'm sure he struggled to balance your comfort with ensuring you had experience in dealing with the inevitable evils and difficulties this world has in store for us.

Shameen and my Father Lion could've been brothers, from I see in that what you said, Dad Lion always believed to Laugh more, war less, because you live longer and better for it! As he knew I 3was always Rough and Ready to Fight..
But I Learned and Temperance is Key to having Long good relationships, and Be Fast to Love and Slow to Temper too, is important. Hard for me, these days, very hard, especially now that he is gone, yesterday was the Marked 2Yr Anniversary of Loosing my "Lion King" to cancers.

For I have said, "Surely what is a Princess with no Lion King?! But merely a Lioness with a name who Walketh in Her Father Lions Shadows. It is a heavy crown to Bear..
Yes my Father Lion let me walk in the mud now and then to give me critical life lessons, that it wont always be so nice or easy, that and he said often, to me..These are his actual words..

[ "One Day Kaage I Wont Be Here, and You Will Want Me and Miss Me Greatly, But You'll Have To Go On Without Me..But You Will Survive..I Can Only Teach You So Much..Some Things You Have To Learn On Youre Own.]"
He was right.
