Quote by Diane Birch

“I'm very nostalgic, and I spend a lot of time in the past, in my mind. That's part of my challenge, and what I really want to do is, I want to be present. I want to leave that in the past. When I say nostalgic, I mean my own life. I spend a lot of time reflecting on my past and not being able to process time.”

He was incredibly supportive. He's continued to be. I love a good challenge, and this certainly has been that.”
