I Was A Ukrainian Folk Dancer In

The Experience Of Giving Birth Itself Made Me Feel More Womanly.

I Didn't Grow Up Watching Film But As A Ukrainian-american, Music And Stories And Dance Are Crucial.

I'm Pretty Squeaky Clean. No Big Tragedies In My Childhood Or Adolescence Or Adulthood. I've Had A Very Easygoing, Simple Life.

You Dont Necessarily Have To Be Religious To Pray.

I Just Hate One-dimensional Portrayals Of Religion; It's Too Cheap And Easy To Do, And Ignores The Nuances That Go Into Having A Belief System.
