For me, when you have to prepare to play God, and then walking away from that, you realize just how tough God's job is. I don't want that job.

I have always been very family-oriented. I came from a dysfunctional, broken family growing up, and it's probably instilled in me the need and the want to have a strong family and a great foundation. So I think that is something that I naturally gravitate toward.

There are moments where you stop living, if you stop changing, and if you stop seeking growth of some sort.

Civil rights happened because youth got involved. The youth stood up and helped to break the pattern that their parents had got accustomed to living. The next generation has to take that stand for whatever it is, socially, that they are involved in.

Everything happens when it's supposed to.

Only when you find the courage to say something to someone that might influence a change in your behavior, does that behavior change.

God in my mind gives you what you need. So, if you need God to be a black woman and you need that for whatever your reasons are, then perhaps your blessings will come in that form.
