You are the author of your own life...Don't let others define it for you. Real power comes by doing what you are meant to be doing, and doing it well.

Personally, I think if a women hasn't met the right man by the time she's 24, she may be lucky.

I've seen that many times in rural African villages where people have nothing but a hut and a bowl. The joy in the children's eyes is something you wish you could package and bring back to America.

When you know who you are and what you stand for, you stand in wisdom.

I know for sure that what we dwell on is who we become.

I've learned that you can't have everything and do everything at the same time.

I look at problems as opportunities and use every person, every incident, and every encounter as an opportunity to show a more loving part of myself.
