When asked what her greatest joy in life has been, her response was: “My greatest joy in life thus far, is not based upon a single person, or activity, or experience. It does not come from an outside source. My greatest joy in life is being proud of the woman I see in the mirror. It is a joy I cultivated on my own. A joy that I had to dig deep, scratch and crawl my way into. Having an insurmountable amount of peace in knowing who I am as a woman in this vast world. Knowing what I stand for and having the strength to stand by who I am to my very core, regardless of the opinions of others.
