I don't get a chance to be home much.

I was angry at God until I came to understand that it isn't God's fault when people mistreat me. I still have my doubts at times, but I try to remember that God has given them the same free will that He's given me.

Gaining control over your health and well-being is one of those times in your life that you get to be completely selfish and not feel bad about it. If you want to meet your goals, you have to make it about you. You have to make it work for you and you alone. Anything less is a setup for failure.

Even though I am extremely blessed to have accomplished many of my goals at such a young age, I am still reaching, still striving.

I feel like I've lived about three or four different lives.

I accept any challenge.

I didn't start singing with my eyes open until I was 19 - that's how shy I was!
