By definition, I believe I am unapologetically optimistic and I am unapologetically earnest.

I'm not a Luddite, but I'm outside more than I'm on my computer. We have a micro-farm - it's a step up from a garden. We have a pretty extensive vineyard. We grow about 60 percent of our own food, make our own wine, have chickens for eggs.

We get very set in our ways and it's sometimes hard to look beyond what else is out there.

What I find interesting is that the people that follow your Twitters are called 'followers.' Talk about false idolatry, right?

Spiritually, we're all on a path. I haven't declared of defined myself because as soon as you declare yourself you're identifying with a certain dogma.

All the crap that we've encumbered our lives with, it's really meaningless.

Literally, if someone says I am grounded, everyday I am at home, I actually have my hands in the ground and dirt under my fingernails. I don't have a staff to do it all for me. I still plant a seed and I'm amazed it grows.
