We are all the same. We have the same hopes, fears, strengths, and weaknesses.

Seeing my children in the morning as they come down from their bedrooms makes my heart come alive. There's just no better moment in my day.

When you have children, it's like having your heart beating outside your chest. You can drive yourself crazy wanting to protect them and make sure that nothing harms them. It's a feeling of vulnerability that you can't get around sometimes.

Biggest lesson? Discovering that the less I think about myself and the more I think about what I can do for others, the more I get out of life. Ultimately, it makes me a happier person. You have to give it away if you want to get it back. After all, humility isn't thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less.

We are all the same. We have the same hopes, fears, strengths, and weaknesses.

I have about four different endeavors I'm going after right now. They all excite me in different ways. I'm all about keeping as many irons in the fire as possible. I'm writing music, trying to write a book (aren't we all?), putting a festival together, speaking... It keeps life interesting.

That perfect day, that magic moment that we're all waiting for, is right now.
