Quote

I was born with the gift.

I definitely have a real self-destructive streak.

I was blessed with a gift. It's a gift and a curse. It never ends.

It is a natural gift I was born with but it's something I've had to nurture in training.

One of the greatest gifts my father gave me - unintentionally - was witnessing the courage with which he bore adversity.

In some ways, my gift for music and writing was born out of tragedy, really, and loss.

The greatest gift is the ability to forget - to forget the bad things and focus on the good.

I felt giving birth was the most creative act of all my creative acts - literally creation!

I really feel like the gift is also the curse. It's always half-and-half. Whatever brings you the most joy will also probably bring you the most pain. Always a price to pay.

One of the greatest gifts my father gave me - unintentionally - was witnessing the courage with which he bore adversity. We had a bit of a rollercoaster life with some really challenging financial periods. He was always unshaken, completely tranquil, the same ebullient, laughing, jovial man.
