You can’t move ahead until you bury the past.

I try to give people hope. Even though life is bleak, there's hope out there.

Some things in life are worth waiting for.

I've shut myself inside these walls, and I'm going to be a very lonely old lady if I'm not careful.

Remember me? I'm back to my old self again. No responsibilities, no attachments, no encumbrances. I don't want to own anything, love anyone, or get too attached to people, places or things. It's a rule that seems to work well for me.

I used to think when I had children that somebody else had the rule book and they hadn't given it to me, and everybody else knew how to do it right except me. I find the same thing in writing: you think that everybody knows what they're doing and that you don't.

I have these wonderful homes, and no one to share them with.
