“In 2008, I was the woman who thought she had the world by the tail: the "perfect life." In 2010, I was the woman without hope who thought she had no life left to live. Which woman am I today? Neither. Both were illusions.”

“There is no shame in having been the woman I was. She made me the woman I am.”

“When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a woman, I put away childish things.”

“I hope they remember the good stuff, when I was a baby, a toddler, when they still had hopes and dreams for their little girl, their miracle child. In truth they were good to me. They were only doing what they knew how to do; what they thought was best.”

“Once upon a time, there was a woman who discovered she had turned into the wrong person.”

“Because I have forgiven my past, and God has forgiven my past, no person on earth can make me denounce my past. It's what made me who I am today.”

“Never question the sanity of a woman who can render you defenseless with a look.”
