I have learned the hard way to mind my business, without judging who people are and what they do. I am more troubled by the lack of space being provided for the truth to unfold.

When we believe we are losing control, we grab on tight. When our greatest fear comes upon us, we clench our fist and teeth, close our eyes and hold on. We must learn how to let go. When the time comes for growth and change, we must have the courage and faith to let go. Whatever leaves my life makes room for something better.

Perhaps these things are there to keep us alert, to make us stronger, or to test our resolve to keep moving forward.

It is not what you hear, it is where you listen from within yourself that gives meaning to the message.
Iyanla Vanzant
Be willing to share all of who you are. So many of us want a partner, but we're not willing to show all of us.
Iyanla Vanzant
When we find ourselves in the same situation repeatedly as a result of our conditioned responses, we must stop and do a new thing. The situation may look different. The route we take there may be altogether different. The lesson we must learn does not change. Get honest! Pay attention! Change what you do to create a change for yourself!
