For a good 10 to 12 years, I was working non-stop and I wasn't really enjoying my success.
I spent a lot of my life holding back my cries, and I want to change that because it's not good for me.
I have my own opinions, but my songs don't share them.
Now that I have and I'm not a have-not, I've learned how important it is to maintain humility.
Being betrayed is one of the most valuable lessons life can teach.
I'm always soul searching on a spiritual level.
Horses calm me. I love being around them. They smell great, they are beautiful to look at, they are loving, demanding, temperamental, and they settle you.
In a way, we women take on more than we need to sometimes.
I'm neither embarrassed of who I am, where I come from, what I've experienced, I'm not ashamed of it.
Suffering does not discriminate.
I do not see my family life in any way, shape, or form as an opportunity for a photo.
My life revolves around my child's routine.
I want romance.
One day, someone said to me, 'Do you want to go jump out of an airplane?' I felt like I had nothing to lose anymore, so I said, 'Why not?' And every day since then, I ask myself that question.
So many people bare their midriffs, I don't know why mine is such an issue.
I was not naturally meant to be on stage. I hated being in the spotlight; I was scared.
All I ever intended was to make a living at what I do. Everything I've achieved since then is above and beyond.
The only reason that you do visual is solely for the visual. That's the only reason. It doesn't sell your music for you.
Writing is very much a playground - an artistic playground. It's the most fun thing I do.
I really hope my peers appreciate and respect what I'm doing.
