Missing You….A Dedication and Reflection
There are certain parts of my beginning semester of college that I remember all too well. I remember the first friend I made, the first party I attended, the first time I wore pajama pants to class (living the true college experience). The first month in particular was a very rough time for me, as…
#ConfessionsOfALocdGoddess: YouTube, The Natural Woman’s Savior
Have you noticed that every time you turn around, there is a beautiful black queen rocking her natural hair or locs? No matter what the reason, be is spiritual, personal, mandatory or voluntary, many women are getting back to their origin, and rocking their natural hair.
Confessions of a Loc’d Goddess: Dr. Bronner’s Magic Soap Review!
Credit: target.com I recently received a bar of Dr. Bronner’s castille soap (the lavendar scented one) from Target. I wanted to try Dr. Bronner’s on my hair, because I had heard that it was great at cleansing your hair and getting the dirt and grime out of your locs. I have used it twice so far,…
What’s Your Definition?
Everyone has something that defines them. It’s usually in their introduction of themselves. It’s the one thing they take pride in, that thing they want you to know more than anything else they talk about. Most times, that is all they talk about.

Day 8: Gettin’ my Comment On!
Day 8’s task on the Blogging 101 journey was to make a comment on 4 different blog posts. This was good for me, because I get too focused on my own blog, that I don’t take the time to give others credit, or go try to comment on other people’s blog. I have to remember…
Standing in the Sun
It’s something about stepping outside on a sunny day, and allowing the warmth of the sun to radiate through your pores. It’s exhilarating. I spent 5 minutes in the sun today and it made me feel really good. I have noticed that every day I feel so closed in. I spend my entire day in…
Empty
Another night, lying in bed, searching the ceiling for an answer it didn’t have. Another night of talking to herself, asking questions with no answer. Another night of empty and idle thoughts. She wondered how perfection felt; wondered what joy was and if happiness ever existed. She looked over her bed and found him lying there, sleep taking…
