When I was growing up, my mother, who had been through a lot of terrible things in life, taught me that when life is tough your instinct is to close your heart. But if you can accept what happened and reach out to someone, there will always be someone less fortunate, or someone that can bring a solution and help your life.

I have many friends who do not believe in luck; they believe in blessings. Likewise, I do not believe in coincidences; I believe in miracles.

I danced with the London Festival at Covent Garden. I'm a ballerina by trade; I'm a ballerina who sings by the way.

One baby is a miracle. To be given two at once is a gift beyond words.

People treat life as though it's the dress rehearsal for some big show. It's not. This is it.

Beauty is a radiance that orginates from within.

Live each day the fullest you can, not guaranteeing therell be a tomorrow, not dwelling endlessly on yesterday.
