Don't get confused with what people say you are, with who you know you are.

If you're hurting, you need to help somebody else ease their hurt. If you're in pain, help somebody else's pain.

The way to choose happiness is to follow what is right and real and the truth for you. You can never be happy living someone else's dream. Live your own. And you will for sure know the meaning of happiness.

Your life is a reflection of how you think

I really feel a sense of responsibility first as a creation of a force that I call God, that's bigger than myself. And because I'm black, I feel the responsibility to that. I feel the responsibility to my womanness. But more importantly, I feel a responsibility to my humanness.

Take five minutes to centre yourself in the morning...set your intention every day...if you don't have five minutes, you don't deserve to have the life of your dreams.

Life isn't about what you have but what you have to give.
