I am not defined by transient fame, or by childhood sexual abuse, or by world records. I don’t wake up each morning a woman, a senior citizen, a lesbian, a Democrat, a human rights advocate, an atheist, a pacifist, an animal lover, an environmentalist. I may be all of these things, although above all I’m just a person who cherishes a bold journey. A person who refuses to let this one wild and precious life slip quietly by.
