ACKNOWLEGMENTS

"To my fans, because sharing your stories with me in person, in letters, and on-line gave me the courage to tell my own. So many of you taught me that you needed to be heard. I hope you recognize your voices and that you realize I understand, I care, and I love you. Thank you for loving me, no matter what".

"I was a different kind of kid. The sadness of a gloomy rainy day made me happy.The sound and smell of rain relaxed me.I loved the ping-ping-ping of raindrops against my window. I'd ask Mother if she could take me in her car for a ride in the rain.Later in life, when I had my license, I'd spend hours driving through rainstorms. I liked the mood of a gray sky. I liked leaning against the window and gazing at the wet world outside. Iliked the connection to water. . . I didn't mind getting my hair wet in the rain.As a little girl, I wore my hair in braids. I only started combing it when I began to perform. Getting my hair soaked in a downpour felt like freedom".
