>Read a book as if every word has a meaning
>When I was young, my dad told me something that I still think about
Does the job, but flat
>In my younger and more vulnerable years
The speaker views his youth as a time of vulnerability. He chooses to emphasize this over the other aspects of youth (growth, innocence, etc). Why might somebody use that word? Does it say anything about the character?
>advice that I've been turning over in my mind ever since
This is more evocative. He's not just thinking about it, he's turning it over in his mind. What physical objects do people regularly turn over? Pancakes? Rubic's cubes? Why would one "turn over" some advice given to them? How would this be different than just thinking about it? Does it imply uncertainty, an unwillingness to accept it? Or maybe he felt like he didn't fully understand it until later it life?
In the olden days authors would go through several physical drafts of their book and painstakingly pick out each word. They chose the words they chose because they felt like it was important. Read it like that.

If krav maga actually worked, it would be used in MMA.
The truth is it only works against people who don’t realize that they are about too be in a fight. Fuckin jews invented an entire discipline of sucker punches.
