I refuse to act the way someone expects me to.
The only way we know we love ourselves and the people in our life is by the agreements we are willing to make and keep
Just because I'm presented life in a certain way doesn't mean I do all these things. It's just something I choose to express.
I think they were scared of me because I was different. I've always asked, 'Why? Why do I have to do that? Why do I have to look this way? Why do I have to dress this way? Why do I have to behave this way?'
Unconsciously transmitting ideas to the other MC way back when............,,,..#quantum
I wouldn't have turned out the way I was if I didn't have all those old-fashioned values to rebel against.
There isn't a performer on earth that isn't an exhibitionist. There isn't any point in being in this business if you're not an exhibitionist. And, by the way, you can be an exhibitionist and be very shy as well.
I have had many challenges in my life, including some very big ones when I was young and I've learned a lot of valuable lessons along the way. I have seen life from just about every angle you can see it from.
And I'll remember the love that you gave me, now that I am standing on my own, I'll remember the way that you changed me, I'll remember.
If I can't be daring in my work or the way I live my life, then I don't really see the point of being on this planet.
I think there are just as many assholes meeting the old-fashioned way as there are meeting in the new hookup culture.
I tend to write during the day so I can see my children at night. But if my kids aren't with me and I have a chunk of time when I'm a single woman living in my house for a miraculous week, I will get to write at different hours.
Writing is a very intimate thing, especially when you write lyrics and sing them in front of someone for the first time. It's like a really embarrassing situation. To me, singing is almost like crying, and you have to really know someone before you can start crying in front of them.
I like to think I'm a role model for women. But I also don't like to just limit it to women. I like to think I'm a role model for human beings in general.
