Walking my dogs, playing with my kids - all of that is really good stuff to keep me centered.

I love just going out; long drives, the ocean, my kids, new music, new gear, new plug-ins, coffee, and donuts at four in the morning. Even just waking up and writing.

I've learned that each day is definitely a gift. When my dad died, I made sure I said everything to him. I realized that once he's gone, he's gone. No matter how angry or resentful or whatever.

I pray to the architect that designed me. I'm grateful.

Life will always change, and I'm always thinking about how to have a good-enough attitude to roll with the changes of life, of an ever-changing landscape.

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.

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