My mother passed away, my marriage ended, and I moved. Those are some pretty big things to let go of. But I find that if you hold on to something too tightly, you strangle it and yourself. If you don't let go, and let things go through you, it's toxic - physically.

Maybe I think you're cute and funny. Maybe I wanna do what bunnies do with you, if you know what I mean.

Music to me is something that I didn't choose; it was a necessity. I grew up with music, my father is a musician. It makes me happy; it makes people happy.

When I said I was born a feminist, I was born thinking woman are equal to men, if not stronger than men. That's the way I always was.
