At Some Point, You Have To Make A Decision. Boundaries Don't Keep Other People Out. They Fence You In. Life Is Messy. That's How We're Made. So, You Can Waste Your Lives Drawing Lines. Or You Can Live Your Life Crossing Them

I Want My Daughters To See Me And Know Me As A Woman Who Works. I Want That Example Set For Them... I Am A Better Mother For It. The Woman I Am Because I Get To Run Shondaland, Because I Get Write All Day, Because I Get To Spend My Days Making Things Up, That Woman Is A Better Person - And A Better Mother. Because That Woman Is Happy. That Woman Is Fulfilled. That Woman Is Whole. I Wouldn't Want Them To Know The Me Who Didn't Get To Do This All Day Long. I Wouldn't Want Them To Know The Me Who Wasn't Doing.
