How Vanessa Williams Balances Her Family and Career
Video from OWN
"Although Vanessa Williams has been married twice, the powerhouse actress and singer says she never wanted any of the divorce drama to affect her children. She describes her relationships with her ex-husbands, Ramon Hervey and Rick Fox, and relates how she managed a successful career with four children at home. Watch to find out what major role Vanessa turned down while raising her kids, and hear why she doesn't regret any of the sacrifices she's made.
Forgiveness, apologies and moving on are integral to our lives. Holding grudges, anger and perpetual brooding about the past are unwise and ultimately unhealthy.
All of us are sinners and we hold no moral high ground over the people in our lives and in our culture.
It is always a good thing that an organization, a group of people will humble themselves to make a public apology.
