QUOTABLES

"We forgive everybody, but ourselves. We're great at forgiving the parents, the kids, the significant other, but the person we struggle forgiving is ourselves." - Dr. Delatorro McNeal II

“What kills a lot of relationships is the lack of vision for the relationship. A single person knows what they want. Another single person knows what they want… But they didn't make the vision of what the relationship was going to be bigger than their own individual visions. So, as they're in a relationship, they're pursuing separate visions — that's division.” - Dr. Delatorro McNeal II

"You will always find what you're looking for. If you are trying to find what's wrong with this person, you will make up stuff." - Dr. Delatorro McNeal II
