There are some things I'd like to get into in terms of what's important to me.

To be in a position, at my age, where I am financially independent, I can help develop things, I can promote stuff that I believe in, I can say no a lot and spend time writing - that is a gift.

The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are.

I'm learning how to keep my identity and personal life sacred. It's a matter of knowing my limits. I don't have to give everything that's asked of me.

I know who I am and what I do.

The privilege of a middle-class, stable, bourgeois life is that you can pretend that you are not complicated and project yourself as a solid, uncomplicated person, with refined life goals and achievements.

It's definitely a privilege to be able to do what you love to do; it's not something that everyone gets to do, so I feel really good about that.

I want, by understanding myself, to understand others. I want to be all that I am capable of becoming.
