It's usually kids that normally don't have a chance to get to meet each other because they're separated by millions of different things.

For some reason I can articulate my feelings better in song. I wish it would come out better in regular life too though. The issue is that I struggle with is that I'm worried about what people think, or how they'll react to whatever it is I have to say, and obviously that's not a good thing.

I think for me to do a traditional sitting meditation I would really have to spend a couple weeks working at it. The only way I know how to efficiently, effectively meditate is by walking in nature.

Nature inspires me because it's so peaceful. It makes me have an inward experience. It makes me reflective and nostalgic.

Bringing up issues that are hard to deal with is a challenge for me, and I think that's what draws me to song writing.

I think the two biggest issues are world hunger and health, and all the things that stem from bad food.

I guess it's just my job to somehow balance knowing that every song is going to come differently and be different, but also know that, on the other hand, I am a songwriter and I am a craftsman, and I do have a craft and a technique and a method. So I need to balance the technique and the method.
