No one thought I would be successful. Everyone thought I would fail. You have no idea how much courage it took for me to do this.

I can count the number of dates I've had on one hand. I wish that guys would approach me, but they don't.

When I wake up, I always thank God. I'm grateful for another day, and he's allowed me this tiny thing that we should be appreciative of. As long as you know who you are, everything else will be OK. No one else can intervene or interfere or affect you, because you control your destiny, you control your tone, you control everything in your life.

I'll never stop dreaming that one day we can be a real family, together, all of us laughing and talking, loving and understanding, not looking at the past but only to the future.

I think women need to have a lobby. I feel that women need to speak out. The first time a man hits you is one too many times and you need to do something about it. That something about it is walking out that door and seeking for help and never looking back.

There's a lesson to be learned out of everything we go through in life.

As far as I'm concerned, my life is just beginning. It's never too late to start over, so this is what I've been doing.
