All parents gush about what it's like to be a parent. I love it.

I love stretching myself musically.

Once upon a time I was so restless in love / When things were fine I changed my mind just because / Now I see how wrong and reckless I've been / Each frog has a prince / Just waiting inside of him, ... Somebody's Miracle.

I love scoring. Putting music to picture is a rewarding challenge and one that relies on interpretation of emotion - as in, what is the pivotal feeling in a scene and which character's point of view is driving it at any given moment?

I was raised to be a very intelligent housewife.

Avoid providing material for the drama that is always stretched tight between parents and children; it uses up much of the children’s strength and wastes the love of the elders, which acts and warms even if it doesn’t comprehend. Don’t ask for advice from them and don’t expect any understanding; but believe in a love that is being stored up for you like an inheritance, and have faith that in this love there is strength and blessing so large that you can travel as far as you wish without having to step outside it.
