I have an explanation

I Might Need a Little More Than "Patience..."

This week I've been having a lot of ups and downs with my hair. Should I get it trimmed? Should I try twists again? Should I cut it all off and start again? Should I get another texturizer? The questions have been many, and I don't have any answers.

This new video from Chescaleigh may not have solved any of my hair problems, but it did make me laugh and look at things from a different perspective. Maybe you can enjoy it too...

She's a Shero for Sure! Viola Davis Talks about Coming Out and Creating Her Own Path in Hollywood.

It's great to see how Viola Davis has grown to love herself, as she says in this article in the Houston Chronicle. It just goes to show the overwhelming power of self-doubt and negative thinking. Someone and beautiful and talented as she is...

And to hear that she's going to bring Barbara Jordan's life to screen is just as exciting.

Continuous Transition

What's the point of this natural hair journey?
When will I reach my destination?
When will I really feel like I know my hair?

Although I am very comfortable with my new 'do, I can't help but wonder "What's next?"

Sometimes I see another black woman with natural hair, and I think to myself, "I can't wait until my hair is her length." Before I realize it, I'm asking myself how long it took her to grow her hair to that length. 

I can't even ask myself if it's about the journey or the destination, because I don't know the destination. When do I wake up and feel like I'm there? I'm not there yet. I feel like I'm still transitioning.
