my happy place

#TBT Hair Envy

Sitting here (killing time as my deep conditioning treatment soaks in) reminiscing over pictures from two years ago... pre- blonde, before what feels like countless cuts, shrinkage and a change in curl pattern; and before I had to stretch my curls to get them to hang longer. I love the length here but the definition in my curls has greatly improved now that straightening my hair is no longer a part of my weekly routine. Amazing to think that I achieved this length with little to no regard to how I was treating my hair. I put no thought into products, heat styled almost daily and didn't really care for wearing my hair in it's natural state. The only time it received any real tlc was when I was in the salon.

 Now I'm a complete product junkie (complete with studying the ingredients and what my hair does and does not respond well to.. - post on that coming later), only go to the salon for trims three times a year, and don't care for my hair in any state other than my natural. Oh, how times have changed! 

( SIDE NOTE: I'm working on a number of things… spiritually, mentally and physically; and 2015 will be the year that it all comes together. God willing.)

Musings: 12/05/2014

got substance?
my dreams have been giving me a lot to interpret lately

I've been able to wake up and vividly remember at least one dream for each day of the passing week,

the latest seemed to center around candles.. these interpretations speak to me

the grinch (with Jim Carrey) is on, my dog's in my lap and I couldn't be more content in this moment.
everything that you come across on a daily basis is for a reason
..know that

people have been showing interest in purchasing my art, and I couldn't be more honored.

while I'm not completely comfortable putting a price on my work because that's not my purpose in creating I may explore the idea

thank you.

Who Knew

Who knew we’d have foes
simply because of the way we wear our clothes
Kinky fros
Wide nose
But the very blood within us flows
The same
In vain
(in vein)
Because the skin that covers it isn’t the same

Who knew that melanin could cause such disdain
In this day and age
Eliciting rage
Disgust
Is that really enough
To separate us

The human race,
Who knew,
Only has room for one?
(Won)
A race
To be first place
Only to stand above another
Are we not people?
Did we not all come from a mother?
A sister, a brother?
But no,
Couldn’t be
 

They say

 You’re not the right color.
