I started writing songs so late and I had so many day jobs - jobs just to pay the bills. So, when I started doing this, I said, "I'm never gonna do anything to corrupt this. Never try to "sell it." Never gonna do anything to make this a job." I can go five months without writing a song. Then something will happen and I'll write six songs in a week.

I like to express myself creatively and it doesn't matter the medium. Whatever medium I choose at that moment, whatever works the best.

We are meant to go through this life with a partner, someone who picks us up when we're down.

I know that being positive is a choice, and I try to make that choice every day.

Love is everything. Without it, I have no use for this world. When I'm not in love with someone, I feel empty and I can't think about anything but trying to find that someone.

I try to exercise as much as possible and eat healthy. But most importantly, I try to make sure that I'm near people who inspire me to be a better person.

We have to try to keep ourselves open, no matter how closed the world tries to make us sometimes. We are meant to go through this life with a partner, someone who picks us up when we're down. This life can be incredibly difficult, especially if we're alone. And if we can stay open and embrace our insecurities, our vulnerability, only then will we find the person with whom we are meant to travel through this life.
