meet my baby sister, Chicara! :)
Happy Sunday all! my blog has suffered due to the fact that i am getting into the groove of things again. i haven't woken up at 7 am in awhile and i am not a morning person. thankfully the mornings fly by :) as for the afternoon, eh, not so much, but that's okay too. waking up early does leave me groggy in the evenings and oh so excited for bedtime! but i know my excuse is unacceptable. my goal is to blog one to two times a week. we shall see how that goes. however, i have a really good vegetarian recipe i want to post, unfortunately that will have to wait until tomorrow. :) i found it on Pinterest, of course ;), but i modified it a bit and made it my very own. & later i will post my natural hair regimen, which i am excited about! :)
anyway, i just wanted post a couple of things i have been extremely grateful for lately. hope you all have had a wonderful weekend.
1. new beginnings.
A lot of things have changed lately but for the better. it's almost like a new beginning. starting over.
fresh start. redemption. whatever you want to call it. change can be scary sometimes, but if it's for the
better, i welcome it with arms wide open.
2. rest
even God rested on the 7th day. that says everything. work, work, work work without rest can be
dangerous. i think it's possible to lose your mind when you are always working and never taking a
moment for yourself. as an undergraduate, i was ALWAYS on the go. i was busy not because i
wanted to be, but because i had to be. i never had a moment to reflect or to think about what was
going on--summertime was not rest when you have the next semester hanging over your head. i
probably sound like i'm whining and i promise i am not. i am thankful for the opportunity, but i am not
thankful for all of those moments i was sleep deprived and a zombie. one day i will benefit from it, but
today i am reflecting, resting, enjoying my life, taking a break and loving every single second of it.
