My Vocation Is To Make My Life

I Was Always Told I Was Special. And I Was Also Assured That I Had A Gift And A Purpose.

I've Been Devoted To Alison Krauss For Many, Many Years.

I Was Powerless Over My Childhood But The Coping Strategies That I Developed, To Survive, All Of Which Were Creative And Brilliant And Got Me Through, As An Adult Those Became My Defects Of Character. Those Became My Shortcomings, Control And All That Kind Of Stuff... And That's My Responsibility. I Was A Blameless Child In What Happened In The Home; I Take Responsibility For My Behaviors As An Adult.

I Do Not Want To Give My Power, My Self-esteem, Or My Autonomy, To Any Person, Place, Or Thing Outside Myself... The Only Thing That Matters Is How I Feel About Myself, My Personal Integrity, And My Relationship With My Creator.

Both My Husband And I Give A Lot Of Ourselves In What We Do Because That Is Our Public Lives But In My Private Life, I Have An Intrinsic Right To Be Left Alone.
