I don't judge. I'm not God. We're supposed to be less judgmental and accept and be kind and love one another.
Dolly Parton
Image
Music, I suppose, will be the thing that sustains me in the time of my life when I am too old for sex and not quite ready to meet God. It has always been an essential part of me.
