Quotes:
“Our friends are always like, ‘Oh, you guys are such a perfect couple. You always look so happy.’ Well, hello, looks are deceiving. And inside the marriage, there's a lot going on that's not spoken.”
“Definitely not feeling like someone's always going to judge or kind of wants to steer you one way is completely liberating in that you can make your own mistakes and no one's going to say, ‘Oh, I told you so.’”
“I have lived, like people say, live each day like it's your last. I have done that since she passed. Because I think it's very important, because we really don't know when our time is. So, whenever it is, I'm hoping that I've given my sons enough skills and understanding that, yeah, it'll be okay.”
“Long time ago, my sister said that happiness is a choice, and I got so mad at her. I was like, that is not true. Well, you know, there is some truth to it, if there is a truth in that the brain, it can be rewired. It takes effort, it takes lots of hours of probably internal work, but I do believe it's possible.”
“If it were my time tomorrow, it's okay because I feel everyday fulfilling that mission, that's my life.”
“It's the music, and feeling like I am the ‘Dancing Queen’ because I am. I love music and I love to dance.”
