If people... I don't poo-poo anyone's religion.
If you...
I think it's a beautiful thing.
You know, if people want to practice and go to church, it was a lovely thing for me as a child.
It also created a lot of shame, a lot of self-hatred.
It led to a suicide attempt.
But...
You know, but the personal relationship with a power greater than myself, my personal relationship with my God, my source, I've never questioned that.
I've never questioned the presence of a God in my life because I have too much evidence to suggest otherwise.
So I am very grateful for God's presence in my life and the clear purpose that my higher power has put me here for.
And I hope...
imperfectly, I will continue to be able to be of service and to live in that purpose.
Hopefully this book will help and my other work as an artist and an activist will help that.
I just, that's what I think is so admirable about your work is you, everything you do is purposeful and it is to be in service of others.
And you can feel that and you feel that reading this book, the way that this is going to help so many people out there.

You were...
You absolutely popped off the screen on that show.
Thank you.
