Young kids don't have their identity, so everything is so important. Now I'm mature. I know who I am and I know what my thing is and I know what I'm bringing. It's very clear and defined.
Liz Phair
Image
I don't always trust my own instincts. It would be nice if someone else would tell me what I should do with my life!
