The message I'll share...is that inclusion is extremely important for kids with and without disabilities.
It doesn't really matter to me how I make a difference, I just wanna make sure that I do.
Pain happens to everyone. To grow up, to fulfill your potential, to develop into what God wants you to be-this process takes support. No one succeeds alone.
I decided to study special education and fell in love with working with individuals with autism. That's what I planned to do with my life.
The greatest glory never comes from falling, but from rising each time you fall.
And I think that when I finally decided to let go and let God and allow that to happen, I became a lot more successful than I could have done if I had planned it all myself.
My mother taught me that we all have the power to achieve our dreams. What I lacked was the courage.
In my ideal world, no child would suffer. Charitable instincts would prevail. There would be global acceptance of all different types of people.
A song can be more than words and music ... when sung with soul a song carries you to another world, to a place where no matter how much pain you feel, you are never alone.
Love others and as you do, that love will return to you.
I'm not different. I'm not different at all. The wrapping is different but the gift is still the same.
I appreciate the idea of allowing people to have their own private walk with God. To me, God is about love, not condemnation.
Well, financially it's a little bit better. But it's better than than when I was a teacher. But I kind of - it's allowed me to buy a house. And I've been able to help my mother with some stuff and my brother. So, that's nice.
I know that I've got big ears and a big forehead and that my hair sticks up, but I'm happy with myself. I'm not necessarily trying to win a beauty pageant here.
I don't think that there's substantiated evidence that shows that voter fraud is such a rampant problem that we have to put in place measures that people have to pass in order to exercise that constitutional free right. Voting should be -- and is required to be -- a right that is unencumbered. That does not have tests that people must pass.... Anything put in place to restrict that right, or to make it more difficult for people to exercise it, should be outlawed, and should not be allowed.
I'm religious. I think this is something God had planned for me.
It's important that I make a difference in some way. It's not necessarily how I make a difference, but I want to make sure that I do.
UNICEF is working for the survival of children worldwide. What can we do to get more Americans committed to the cause?
It's not the money. It's not the fame. It's the influence.
I kind of had my life planned out for me. I'd be married at some point, have, you know, 1.5 children, and be a principal possibly one day. But I think that that was kind of my problem. I allowed myself to plan out my life and didn't let provident direction guide my life.
But I was going to be a teacher my entire life, so I wasn't counting on money to much.
It's important that I make a difference in some way. If it's performing and touching someone that way, that's great; if it's being a teacher and helping some kid understand something, that's even better.
Everyone deserves the best start in life, which is what UNICEF is working to provide the world's most vulnerable children. Education is essential to a child's development. I hope that as an Ambassador I can encourage people to join UNICEF's mission to make education a reality for children throughout the world.
I never want to produce anything that a family could not enjoy together. I never want to create art that would embarrass my own children later.
I know this is going to sound cheesy and like I'm trying to be Miss America, but the most important responsibility a celebrity has is to set an example and be a role model. I want to make sure that no matter how long I go through this, I don't fall into the trap of changing and modifying how I do things that aren't a positive example. I want to remain somebody that the entire family can listen to or watch.
