January 15 use to be an exciting day for me, but in April 2011 something changed me... I was praying to God asking him to reveal the things to me that I needed to change or let go in my life so that I could be closer to him... I had a dream one night in April that I was holding my AKA key chain and it fell out of my hand, as it hit the floor it broke in half, the pink broke away from the green and the AKA ... broke off... It took me two weeks to be obedient because I was scared of what people would think, but I finally began my process off denouncing my membership... I told the AKAs about my decision and some supported me but to my surprise some had already did the same thing... This was a big decision but it wasn't the only thing that I had to let go to be fully committed to Jesus and to be in his will...I had to let it go so that I could be closer to God... Many people think that these Sororities and Fraternities are harmless but I noticed the more I read my bible the more i...
Often times in situations such as disagreement/arguments or when things didn’t go my way in the pass I would play the victim. I would automatically get in my feelings, get an attitude and choose to respond to the situation as if everyone was out to get me. Often times I would rehearse in my head how I would respond to that person the next time we would speak. Or I would dwell on whatever didn’t go my way and go around with my lips poked out and had an attitude with everyone. Lately, God has brought this to my attention.

Okay, enough is enough…I am going natural!!! I am tired of the breakage and damage I am doing to my hair because of relaxers. I am done. My last relaxer was September 24, 2011 and I am determined to get my thick healthy texture back. The last couple of weeks I’ve been researching on YouTube and other blogs about natural hair and I know with God I can do this thing. However, I am not doing it the way others have in the pass. I am not doing the BIG CHOP or trimming the relaxed ends off…I am going to let God show me what’s best for my hair. I pray over my hair daily and I also take Hair, Skin and Nail Vitamins… I am on my way and I am EXCITED!!! Oh wait, I am also nervous, lol, but I know it’s the enemy trying to get in my head but I pray without ceasing and putting it in GOD’s hands!!!
