    Healing Words To Help You Along

    July 22, 2019 /

    Words are powerful, this we already know. A few weeks ago, I was struggling emotionally and found it hard to form sentences for my Instagram motivational posts. What came to me instead were words, single words and I decided to create a healing words series.  Healing words are just words that can be used as affirmations over your life. These words deliver a simple message that allows you to feel better or convey something you have been trying to say or feel.  In this article, I will be sharing the healing words that I covered in that series. This post will be just the words and the captions that I…

    Born Shanice Palmer on Tuesday, July 11, 1995, at 1:45 am. Have you ever wanted to know more about the day you were born? What things were like and what was happening. I wanted to know, so I did a quick search and found out that 7000 Bosnian Muslim men were massacred. Initially, I felt sad but then I cheered up because that is just the world we live in and it’s the past. As life is brought into the world, life is taken and so I just want to say rest in peace to those men and that no one should die because of religion or conflict. Not that…

    Self-Care simplified. In this post, I will share 25 self-care activities that you can do daily. Sometimes self-care may sound time-consuming and expensive. This is because people may make it seem like a major thing rather than simple acts that we should be doing each day.

    Yes, you can comb out your locs, as well as you can cut off your locs and start fresh. At some point in every loc journey, the question of do I love my locs? or it might be, do I like how my locs are forming ? will arise. For some, the answer is a solid yes!

    Curly Afro-Puff PonyTail for quick styles, Review

    May 7, 2019 /

    This is a review of a cheap curly Afro-Puff Drawstring Hair Piece. When I saw this Afro Puff Hair Piece on Amazon for less than $10 I was skeptical of it. My hubby was convinced it was trash and that I should not buy it. I, on the other hand, decided that it was worth the risk. I mean, I am an amazon prime member. Therefore, the hair would arrive in two days and if I liked it then awesome but if it was not worth it then it can simply be sent back. Amazon offers great customer service to prime members. My First Impressions When the hair arrived it…
