I can look at cancer as a disease that picks me out and 'why me,' or I can look at it through love and say, 'This is a wake-up call. This is my body telling me: 'Hey, you're out of balance here. It's time to get in line with yourself.'

It was tough being a single mom. It was tough being in a divorce with children. Very, very hard.
Melissa Etheridge
What I do believe in is other worlds and spirits. There is some other power in control - levels of energy that perhaps we don't see.
Melissa Etheridge
I think I've been on a path ever since I was born, a path of high stress. I put myself, my career, it was a big old juicy carrot right in front of me for all of my life.
Melissa Etheridge
I've been a rock star since you were very young. But I've never encountered anything as powerful as cancer.

People ask me, 'Is being a parent the be-all, end-all?' And I say, 'Oh, it definitely is up to the person, and it is difficult, it can be very difficult, and it can be extremely healing.' That's what I have found, that the children are mirrors. Everyone is a mirror, but children especially because they're day and night and all day long.
