we didn't have much, but we had love.

Seeing people laugh definitely inspires me, and so does seeing people get life lessons about living better.

I think it's important to show a husband and a wife together, in a room, raising children, because you don't see that anymore.

I know that there are a lot of people out there with stories far worse than mine but you, too, can make it. To those of you who have, welcome to life. I celebrate you.

The road that I'm on is a path that I didn't choose. It chose me. I'm just trying to walk it, and to do the best that I can to honor and respect it.

I'm just enjoying my life.I suggest you try it.

When black women are down with you and in your corner, you have an ally that will move Heaven and Earth.
