Whatever your ethnicity is, in this life you are going to be on a journey to discover who you are and how you feel about yourself.

I'm the little half-black, half-Jewish girl who was odd and awkward. I try to be myself.

I don't have a lot of friends; most of the friends I have, I've had since high school.

I do remember being teased by my cousins on my mom's side for not being black enough. And then I'd spend the summer with my dad and be sent to all white summer camps where I was 'that black girl.'

I like being in relationship because of the comfort it provides.

We keep secrets from people that we love because we're afraid of our own truth. I think sometimes we're afraid to hurt people, because you never know. I think we're afraid of what is, and what can't be.
