Sometimes I wish that I could go into a time machine right now and just look at my self and say, 'Calm down. Things are gonna be fine. Things are gonna be all great. Just relax.'

If I could give my teenaged self any advice, it would be 'Calm down!'

Meditation helps me to calm down.

I wish I could just hug you all, but I'm not gonna.

I definitely shut down sometimes. I always just go into my own little cocoon and write, and I surround myself with as much music as possible. The last girlfriend I had, when we broke up, I remember being in a room for days on days on days with my music cranked up, playing songs like Kanye's '808's & Heartbreak.' That playlist just was long!

I go to the ocean to calm down, to reconnect with the creator, to just be happy.
