    I've got much in my life that's so good: my wife, my children, my friends. I don't need anything filled up by success or a band, ... If I'm going to play with people, I'm going to do it in situations that match the rest of my life, where there's a lot of joy and a lot of love.

    I had a pretty cool life. I met my wife when I was 18, and we're still totally in love. I was in a successful rock band. That wasn't my personal dream, but it was a lot of people's. I had to learn a lot more about gratitude. When I no longer got everything I wanted, I learned the importance of my family, my wife, my friends. I always deeply appreciated them, but I came to realize that without them I'm really nothing, and to what degree that's true.
