I do feel blessed to be in the public eye so I can share what I believe. But I think it would be extremely disappointing if I were to count on it to provide happiness. I've come to realize that any time I do that, the fulfillment is short-lived at best.

It's not hard to feel afraid and insecure. I still fight an inner-critic voice, definitely. I hear it a lot.

I wish people could acheive what they think would bring them happiness in order for them to realize that thats not really what happiness is.

So forgive me, love, if I cry in your shower. So forgive me, love, for the salt in your bed. So forgive me, love, if I cry all afternoon.

When I start writing songs and it turns into an overly belabored intellectual process, I just throw it out.

Writing a song doesn't heal things. Even if the song comes up with a solution, it's still only a theory. Going out and living my lyrics is a whole other deal. That takes courage.

I think God is in us. I think we manifest God in every moment.
