The letters from jail are always disconcerting.

I'm a more mature actress now.

Each year, I say I'm going to go to school next year. It's inevitable that I'll end up getting my education.

No matter how many times you forget it, you can turn around and help someone. Or you can deliver a positive message or share with someone or just listen to someone share their story with you, it's just the best gift there is. And it's free.
