n 1983, at the age of ten, I was appearing opposite Hollywood icon Kate Jackson on the hit television series Scarecrow and Mrs. King. Four years later I was like every other teenager trying to find his way in the world. I spent the next twenty years searching for a direction. On January 18th, 2008 I lost my job. On January 19th, 2008 I had to be rescued from the side of a mountain. This is my lesson in balance.
