I've always been very private, maybe because I discovered my mother, who is a wonderful lady, is very emotional.

Early on in my career, I was more closed off in every way. I thought I was protecting myself; instead, I was robbing myself of all I could learn and experience.

I'm in constant pursuit of growing and evolving.

Love me like you'll never see me again.

I've always expressed myself best through writing. I've gotten out all of my deepest feelings that way for as long as I can remember.

When you're talented, you're talented.

I was tired and I had overworked myself and burnt myself out. So I went to Egypt by myself. When I saw what was built there, it made me understand how powerful we are, that we can create anything. And I felt like I needed to create things that were timeless too.
