I'm Going To Be A Strict Mum.

Anytime You Share Life Stories With Other People, You Know, You Are Acknowledging Their Humanity And Kind Of Accessing Some Things About Yourself, And Other People Start To Expect Things About Themselves. It's Kind Of Like A Fellowship.

People Is, I Think, It's Their Nature - Some People's Nature, In A Way, To Be Angry Or Jealous Or Just Spiteful About Somebody Else's Blessings.

I'm Going To Do As Much As I Can With This Life, And Then I'm Going To Make Sure To Take Some Time Off And Be Simple And Ride My Bike And Hang Out With Friends.

I Didn't Leave Home Until 27. I Was An Only Child Raised In Philadelphia By My Mother And Grandmother. My Grandmother Controlled The Stove. She Made A Lot Of Potato Meals - Mashed Potato, Potato Souffle, Potato Pancakes. When We Didn't Have Electricity We Ate Romantically, By Candlelight.

I Am Making An Effort To Truly Live. I Don't Mean To Imply By That That I Haven't Been Alive Before But, With My Son Being Here And Such A Powerful Force In My Life, He's Given Me A Freedom To Be More. I Think That Sometimes We Can Get Stuck, And Just The Fact That He's Here Says So Much To Me About My Own Existence. I Didn't Think I'd Be Able To Have Children, And This Level Of Blessing Is Something I Can't Even Put My Finger On.
