The 66-year-old actor said, "Everyone has moved in life and is mentally content and secure with what they have. They weren't like that when they were younger and everyone is now content and pleased. Every one of us is aware of what we did wrong or correctly. Time is a great healer and it is best to leave it at that. I was overjoyed that everyone came to my party."
