Life-Changing Decisions and the Courage to Follow Through

And one of the final questions I'll have for you is, you know, we've spent the last hour together, asked a few questions. What is one question that you wish I'd asked you? And how would you have answered? I guess... what is the moment in your life that everything changed? And for me is when I sat down with my parents at 18 years old and I convinced them that I was following in my great-grandparents footsteps. He came from Eastern Europe at the turn of the 20th, learned English, made our money during the depression. It's in my blood. Skipped a couple of generations, but I'm going south. And Allow me to live a poet's life. Allow me to have a true life. And at 18 years old, making that sort of long play decision, it's kind of crazy. It's kind of risky. It's madness. But looking back at it now, I couldn't be more proud of myself for standing strong and tall and following through on a commitment that I gave myself back in 1991 to continue this and not stop.
