The sun comes out in the morning yâall!!! I feel much better today. Thank you all for the positive words of upliftment. I started hyperventilating from stress and anxiety yesterday morning and I just allowed myself to give way to the tears and I stood in the shower and cried and cried and cried. Then I blasted rock music and I sang and cried and sang some more. I let the warm water pour over my head and I stood there supported by the wall until I could hold myself up. And when I got out of the shower I felt ANEW!! Wow!!
Then I thought about you all telling me about Peaches & Herb and I decided to try multiple rows of bangs with randomized wooden beads. I think I do remember rock stars from the early 80s wearing their hair like this - Rick James, Stevie Wonder. I distinctly remember this being a thing âŠ. Except Iâm rocking a puff in the back. Maybe one day Iâll braid my whole head? Lol. Who knows. Iâm digging the half & half look.
Wbu? How are you wearing your hair nowadays? Are you taking any risks & chances? Mimicking any era? Like me, Iâm going for 70s Ebony & Jet magazine / Disco Queen!
In my Black Studies class Iâm demonstrating in action an embrace for natural hair/beauty. Wbu? What are you in to nowadays and why?
Also, I have my FIRST session back in Therapy today. My last therapist left the business in the summer, started her own firm and it took MONTHS for the insurance to cross over and finally FINALLY Iâm about to get mental health support again. Phewwww. And I REALLY REALLY NEED IT! This journey was not meant to go alone. Therapists help us navigate complex and compounding issues which we may not be able to unravel from when weâre in the think of it. Thank Goddess for insurance, and an open mind and willingness to receive help! đđŸ
