I do isometrics in church so while I'm doing my soul some good, I'm doing my body some good, too.

I love walking in the woods, on the trails, along the beaches. I love being part of nature. I love walking alone. It is therapy. One needs to be alone, to recharge one's batteries.

I don't want to be married to someone who feels inferior to my success or because I make more money than he does.

This is one night I wish I smoked and drank.
