I could have been you, you could have been me. One small change that shapes your destiny.

I believed in Obama for social issues. I believe he brought our nation together and healed our racial divide. Martin Luther King's dream came true when he was elected. That's huge.

I had to go see the Glee concert with my daughter - oh my God, shoot me.

I was constantly around all those religious images and to me, angels exist. I feel we were definitely guided and helped and I'm always referring to them in my work.

People ask me, 'Is being a parent the be-all, end-all?' And I say, 'Oh, it definitely is up to the person, and it is difficult, it can be very difficult, and it can be extremely healing.' That's what I have found, that the children are mirrors. Everyone is a mirror, but children especially because they're day and night and all day long.

Life happens, and I write about it wherever I am.

Cancer Is an opportunity to sit down and look into yourself and find the answers. Yes, it's serious, but it's not the end-all.
