Fear is not a part of my vocabulary, actually, and I think that it's really made me a much smarter, braver for sure, person.

Why give up before we try Feel the lows before the highs Clip our wings before we fly away I can't say I came prepared I'm suspended in the air Won't you come be in the sky with me

When I was younger, my mother and I, we'd have these crazy, crazy fights. Everyone would storm out mad, and the only way that I'd be able to express myself was to write her. We would write letters back and forth for days. When I'm writing, I feel uninterrupted. I write what I'm going through and how I see it.

I've always been strong-minded, but I wonder.

I've been able to find a lot of what I've not had before: freedom, bravery, fearlessness. It's empowering to find those things.

Quiet moments recharge me.

Good food is an amazing blessing. Whenever you can sit down at a table, eat food that is extremely delicious, and are surrounded by people you love...it's: Wow, life is good.
