Having my first number one single and being able to travel to places I've never been before has been amazing. The tour was also fantastic. There are so many things which I've experienced this year which I never even dreamed of.

There were two things going on: 1) I had already established in my own mind where I wanted to go with the next series and having James around as a Grey Eminence would have complicated matters. He had had an amazing life and it was time to bid him good-bye.

I'm having a great time. I get to travel and see the world. And yeah I'll have a family because I don't want to miss out on that amazing experience but it's not defining who I am.

I was given such a great gift. It's a miracle that never stops amazing me and reminding me to give thanks every day. Having a wife and daughter gives me a lot more purpose. I was much more selfish before but now I think about what kind of role model I'll be. I just want to be a better man.

What's great about TV and what I love about being on 'Parenthood ' is you have this family. I'm now going on four years of working with the same 100 people and that helps you feel like your life has more roots. It's more conducive to having a family and you're staying in town. So that part is amazing.

One of the most amazing things I got from the film so much green screen there are so many moments and it really taught me about how important it is to have an intention when flying when going somewhere and having an intention.

But it's amazing how many people think that gay men should slink off into the shadows when it comes to having friendships with children.

As an actor to have achieved financial stability is amazing. But I always have this weird fear that I'm not going to get any more work it's about not having enough money.

For me I don't expect to have a really amazing meal each time I dine out. Having a good meal with your loved ones - that's what makes the experience.

There is something about the South that accepts the supernatural. If you don't accept it and you're having a conversation with someone who does it's just one of those polite things where you don't question their belief in ghosts. You just go 'Oh yeah okay.' It's amazing to be able to have conversations like that.
