Hibernation... over. *kinda*

Ken and I are working hard to make our dreams come true. Although we both lead two very different lives we share a common bond through sisterhood. This has revived our spirits, our imaginations, and our friendship. Life has a funny way of introducing you to people who come and then out of your life. My mentor told me … friends eventually become strangers. Priorities change. These two statements have stayed with me and challenged me to rethink the things that are important to me/us. I am glad that the revival and getting to know natural self has given a rebirth to a friendship. The beauty of self is a reflection of who you keep around you. When acquaintances words, comments, critiques, or “what have you” cripple your soul…a friend’s smile or quick phone call can be a crutch to get you through that moment. I almost let others (family or foe) words desensitize our movement. Nope! We are here. After much discussion we are still energized to do what we set out to do. Funny thing… just letting your hair come out into its own can spearhead such a profound notion in two lil black girls with big dreams.
