If only I lived in a perpetual state of awareness for the infinite daily blessings I'm given.

This journey has nourished my soul in a way I couldn't have imagined.

Guilt: it comes in so many subtle forms. It's carbon monoxide for the soul.

The woman who is my best friend, my teacher, my everything: Mom.

I try to be grateful for the abundance of the blessings that I have, for the journey that I'm on and to relish each day as a gift.

For a long while, I was really against Twitter. I mean, who cares if I'm in an airport or had broccoli for dinner?

If you're not going to do your job, get out of here. Don't mess up my work. This is how I feed my family.

I believe when actors say they can go crazy playing the same role, over and over again.
