Welcome

This is a documentation of my journey seeking "my best self"
I am a blessed woman, 2 healthy loving sons and an abundance of all that one needs.
This is not a journey to more of the material stuff, but in seeking my passion and living my best life.
Due to illness, parenting, and busy everyday life, life has lived me instead of me living life.
The purpose of this journey is to turn this back one step at a time.
How will I accomplish this? This I will learn gradually, one thing I am sure of each day of my journey will take me closer to myself.

Blessings,

ETA: I am separated and I can assure you it is for the better. The boys and I are doing good, they are sad but at least they have some breathing space now and don't have to march to the beat of their father's drum anymore. I am more relieved than sad and feel freed from his constant state of depression and lathargic way of living.

Locs

I have always been facinated by locs and the people that wear them. The thing that facinates me most is the non combing and brushing lifestyle. I know I was born to have locs, I have a great dislike for combs, brushes or any other stylingtool, I hate blow dryers and chemicals and I hate people touching my head LOL I started twisting my head for locs on 2 occasions but both times the perfectionist in me took over and made me loose them out again. I want beautiful cultivated locs that I am able to wear in a bun in twists or cornrows depending on my mood. To achieve that good partings are essential and I am lousy at parting my own hair. My cousin (who just started her locs herself) found a friend of hers willing to help me start my locs! I am so exited but scared at the same time. But I know I am ready for locs, in my dreams I always have locs and when I wear twists I am most happy (till it's time to loose them again that is) so I am as ready as I will ever be to start with my journey!

29th of september will be D-day! I have done so much research in the last week that I am starting to feel like a loc-expert, now let's pray that once I have my locs I can apply all my new found knowledge!

This is my natural hair (dripping) wet no products (don't mind my panties :-o ):

These are some ladies with locs that I admire:




Blessings!

I am also a fan of locs. My husband hates them. He had a misconception that if you have locs your hair is dirty. I think that when they are kept neat. moisturized and washed that they are beautiful. Maybe one day I will convince him. But as for you good luck. I can't wait to watch your progress.

Also do you have a workout regimine that you follow or did you change your eating habits? On one of your posts you metioned that your back had toned up. I am interested in hearing what you did.

Also you commented on my post "When the going get's tought, do the tough always have to get going". I wanted to let you know that I replied to your comment if you were interested.

I really like your blog.Thanks for visiting mine.
