Yesterday I Cried

One Day My Soul Just Opened Up, Yesterday I Cried, and In the Meantime was the first 'set' of books I read as an adult. The author, Iyanla Vanzant has to be one of my favorite speakers, writers, teachers, and influentual women of all time. I refer to the term "set" loosely, as she has an incredible array of motivational self-help books under her belt but I have only had the pleasure to read three.

I read them when I was a teenager; I struggled a lot emotionally as a child. I dealt with depression from a very young age but my life has changed so drastically that my perspective of "life" would be different if I were to read the books now.  Maybe that'll be my next project. If anyone out there has any of her books, dust them off the shelf and allow yourself to open up. It'll be hard, painful, and you'll probably cry but it'll be worth it.
