"The process of life is ever unfolding, guiding you, pushing you, preparing you for the next part of the process. Life often takes a twist, or makes a turn that is frightening or confusing.

Perhaps if we stopped trying to figure out the process, the process would proceed exactly as it should." Iyanla Vanzant
