Because we all come from different circumstances, our life experiences really color how we view things.

I don't ever want to be the type of person to tell you what to think or what to believe. Whatever stage in your life that you are in, I want you to organically reach whatever conclusions that you possibly reach.

Because we all come from different circumstances, our life experiences really color how we view things.

My job as an artist is to present the material. My job as a woman is to receive from it what I need.

You have to create your own path and I'm up to the challenge.

You cannot live to please everyone else. You have to edify, educate and fulfill your own dreams and destiny, and hope that whatever your art is that you're putting out there, if it's received, great, I respect you for receiving it. If it's not received, great, I respect you for not.

I'll say that I don't think you can throw a stone and not come in contact with someone who knows someone or has problems with substance abuse.
