I’ve been down this road, I’ve had these types of situations, and I still go forward with the main goal. And that’s continuing going after what I really want and what I believe in and what I love. So, with that being said, this is who I am, this is where I want to be, and this is it. No different than any other day of the week, any other month of the year, any other year; it’s all been the same thing, the same story. Let’s figure out something crazy that we could throw into that story.”
