How important is it to have dinner with your family?

very. we eat together like every night. and also have a bigger, extended friends/family supper on sundays. i think breaking bread together is one of the most important things. second only to laughing together. these things are the most important things.

What do you do when your plan fails?

i try again. while formulating a new plan. i am persistent. i continue on and get creative, more and more creative as need be until i make my way to whatever it is i am moving toward. i don’t know how to fail.
