I believe that their is a duality to the purpose of our life, and it is LOVE and CREATION. To LOVE the life we have - authentically and unconditionally, while we CREATE the best life we can imagine - actively and persistently. This is what L.I.F.E. (Living Inspired & Fulfilled Everyday) is about!

A life of very, very serious, po-faced films would drive me nuts. I need - and I'm fortunate to have - a fairly varied menu in that respect. I mean, I was shooting 'Mamma Mia!' at the same time as I was doing Michael Winterbottom's 'Genova'. That was a very, very bizarre summer.

My life's long radiant Summer halts at last, And lo! beside my path way I behold Pursuing Autumn glide: nor frost nor cold Has heralded her presence; but a vast Sweet calm that comes not till the year has passed Its fevered solstice, and a tinge of gold Subdues the vivid colouring of bold And passion-hued emotions. I will cast My August days behind me with my May, Nor strive to drag them into Autumn's place, Nor swear I hope when I do but remember. Now violet and rose have had their day, I'll pluck the soberer asters with good grace And call September nothing but September.

I had written two or three books before my husband noticed that in every one of them a family member was missing.
