I would have to say the person with whom I am most in love is definitely my son, Everly Bear. Although I'm his dad, I'm also his friend.
Sometimes life's so much cooler when you just don't know any better and all the painful lessons have not hammered your head open yet.

As a father now, I wouldn't do what my dad did, because it left me feeling emotionally unstable as a kid. But he didn't do the things he did out of selfishness or malice.
It seems like the chaos of this world is accelerating, but so is the beauty in the consciousness of more and more people.
I think people that have fear that, 'Oh if I have a kid I won't be able to do this and I won't be able to do that.' It's kind of the opposite. It really gives you energy. It makes people better.

The fact my relationship with my son is so good makes me forgiving of my father and also appreciative.
