Madonna Ciccone
My work gives me a sense of purpose that I never really had before - it gives me a lot of joy, and it would be wonderful to invite other people to get involved.
Madonna Ciccone

Madonna Ciccone

Madonna Ciccone
When my world seems to crumble all around, and foolish people try to bring me down, I just think of your smile face, and I'm flying.
Madonna Ciccone
