As a child I sometimes used to travel to the West Bank to visit my family so I know what the checkpoints felt like. I knew what it was like to live under occupation.
I'm a big fan of doing 'Triple D.' But I don't want to do it forever don't get me wrong! Travel away from my family are you crazy? But do you know what it does for these mom-and-pop restaurant joints? It changes their lives forever. I mean their businesses will never be the same.
I'm interested to go other places I've been the boy in the bubble since we've been shooting I need to go travel a little bit see where the action is other than going to see family of course.
Tennis is all about mental toughness and you have to keep your head in the game. I make time to relax away from competition pressures travel and intense training schedules to make sure I'm looking after myself. Taking time out with family and friends helps to maintain the work-life balance everyone needs.
Even when my parents were together they both had to travel and work and it wasn't like they had nine-to-five jobs. In that way it wasn't a normal family life.
As many of you know I travel a good bit and do not get to see my friends and family as much as I would like.
I think family is very important in West Virginia and has long been so because the mountains made travel difficult in the past and family members had to depend on each other.
My ideal travel companions are my family.
I just see too many people retire and say 'I'm going to take off travel spend time with my family' and they are just miserable. They end up dying. People who work and stay active and like what they are doing live longer.
The hardest part is to travel and to be away from your family.
We have to be thankful considering our number as a family we enjoy very good health generally but you may be sure me and my partner have quite enough to exercise our minds and occupy our attention.
I am both honored and blessed to have had such a wonderful career with the L.A. Galaxy and I am thankful for everything the club the fans and the community has done for me and my family.
Being a teen can be tough. Just try to surround yourself with really good friends that really have your back and also be a really good friend to those who really care about you. If you're not sure about certain things talk to your friends that you trust and your family.
At the age of 16 I was already dreaming of having a baby because I felt myself to be an adult but my mum forbid it. Right now I feel like a teenager and I want to have fun for one or two more years before starting a family.
Life is about family and technology.
Automation and technology would be a great boon if it were creative if there were more leisure more opportunity to engage in raising a family providing guidance to the young all the stuff we say we need. America will work if we're all in it together. It'll work when there's a shared sense of destiny. It can be done!
With millions of family wage manufacturing jobs lost since 2001 we need an energy bill that takes bold action to tap into American ingenuity in order to lead the world in new clean energy technology rather than playing catch-up to the Japanese Danish and Germans.
My father was a schoolteacher and my mother came from a teacher's family.
I was on Oprah's show recently talking about the people who impacted me the most. One was a teacher and one was my soccer coach. I didn't even go into my family who had the most influence.
It was my family that wanted me to be a teacher. That was safe you see. To be a painter was terrible.
I came from a family where I felt great pressure to be financially successful and I felt that staying in Chicago and doing theater I was in all likelihood not going to find financial success.
I think that everybody in the world whatever colour or creed has a jerk like JR in his or her family somewhere. Whether it is a father uncle cousin or brother everybody can identify with JR and that certainly had something to do with the success of 'Dallas.'
I'm starting to judge success by the time I have for myself the time I spend with family and friends. My priorities aren't amending they're shifting.
My sense of personal strength has always come from my family.
