I'm good at giving up control to people who know where they're going and what they want to do. I can sit in the back of a car and ride cross-country if you know where you're going and you know how to take me there.

I try not to take on the weight or the burden of it. Once it's on the paper, I try to leave it, because I want to surrender to what I'm supposed to write about.

There was our house in New Orleans. Two blocks in front of us were these beautiful mansions and two blocks behind us were the ghetto, projects, and that's where I had to go to school, but I would always pattern my life looking forward. It was almost literal.

God has put me in a really good position where I can make the choices to walk away if something is not right, so that way I can keep my integrity.

A miniskirt shows just enough to cause some mystery. What these young women lack is mystery so the old women have to have it.

Focus on one thing, make it your priority, and stick with it no matter what!

I thank God for Closed Doors
