I believe animals should be respected as citizens of this earth. They should have the right to their own freedom, their own families, and their own life.

My kids and my wife make me feel vulnerable.

Nothing is for sure. Change is the only thing that is the absolute.

As an artist and a songwriter myself, I like to feel connected to modern culture and watch how sounds change.

I learned that once it's over, it's really over, and to not take anything for granted.

I try to remember at least twenty to thirty things I'm grateful for every day, and I share those with at least one person that I am super grateful for.

Probably "I love my life" would be something I would say out loud to the planet - just that positive affirmation. And also, "Life is short," "Don't take yourself so seriously," and "Lighten the f - k up." And if that offends you, you really need to lighten the f - k up.
