Your greatest adversary is also your greatest teacher. Like it or not, it is the job of certain people to bring out the worst in you. What they trigger is already in you. They are here to reveal the sore, tender wounded places in your heart and mind, and they are providing you with a wonderful and divine opportunity for healing.

Iyanla VanzantIn love, there is a total acceptance of self, and a willingness to give of self without an expectation of receiving anything in return. When you love, you are not afraid to share the truth of who you are, and you accept the truth of others without judgment.
Iyanla VanzantBe 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 VanzantItโs self-full to be first, to be as good as possible to you. To take care of you, keep you whole and healthy. That doesnโt mean you disregard everything and everyone. But you want to come with your cup full. You know: โMy cup runneth over.โ What comes out of the cup is for yโall. Whatโs in the cup is mine. But Iโve got to keep my cup full.
