Dysphonia is not a singing problem. It's a voice box issue in the muscle on the voice, very different from having a nodule on the vocal cords, which I've never had. I'm lucky that I've never had that. It needs a long renewal time, and even today, I am still addressing it.

Later in my life, I'm going to look back and smile and be very fulfilled. I know that if I don't give it my all right now I'll regret it later. That's very important to me, because I've worked all my life to have this.

I was in a very deep, dark slump, and I needed to find a way to get myself out of it. I had to force myself back out into life, back out into experiencing things.

I'm more private than people realize. I'm not that easy to get to know.

This could be it, I think I'm in love. It's love this time... It just seems to fit, I think I'm in love... This love is mine.

Find your self-esteem and be forever free to dream.

If foundations made of stone can turn to dust, then the hardest hearts of steel can turn to rust.
