The Valley of O.P.P.

The Valley of O.P.P.
Other people's problem's, other people's priorities, other people's principles, other people's people, can get in our way, hold us back, and take us off track until we develop the strength to be honest with ourselves. (Iyanla Vanzant, Faith in the Valley)

Iyanla Vanzant is one of my favorite writers. I try to read something from one of her books each day. I've read several of her books more than once. The above quote is something I read again this morning. While the majority of her books are addressed to African American women I have found all of them very useful in my own life. I think you would too. I recommend her book Acts of Faith to get started.

Mr. Dickie
