Everyone loves to dance. I’ve realized that’s a part of what I do more and more every day.
As we get older, it’s important for us to help hand back some of what we’ve gained as we’ve grown older. It should be one of your responsibilities – it’s almost like being a mentor.
If a person uses the word ‘sorry’ loosely then of course it loses its value.
Education is everything – education is your power, education is your way in life for whatever you want to do.
Dancing – however you do it, even if it’s in your living room – is a great workout.
When I’m in focus mode, I do training six times a week. Carbs only in the morning. And I try not to eat at least two hours before bed.

Sweetwater County, Tennessee. Population 5,000. Where your heart and home belong. Lisa Mortan would soon see if the county motto scribbled on their sign was true. It had been a long drive from.

That was one of the hardest things about breaking up. It’s not a pair of bookends, the beginning and the end... It’s all the things we used to do that we’d never do again and all the things we’d never do for the first time together.
How about life’s too short to be second-guessing yourself the whole way? You can only go with what you feel right now and if you feel like it might make you happy, even for a while, jump in with both feet, girl, and get wet.
Just because something doesn’t last forever doesn’t mean it isn’t meaningful.
Was this what being straight was like? A boy in your bedroom making a mess? Not for the first time, I thanked God I was a lesbian.
Things felt more messy than ever. Could someone treat you badly and still love you? Someone could treat you badly and you still love them, so maybe the reverse was true too. But just because you loved someone it didn’t mean you had to give them another chance. Or maybe that’s exactly what it meant.

I made a mental note that if I ever wanted to try some therapeutic screaming, the acoustics in here were great.
