I wrote my last blog the day I found out my cousin passed away. I can't lie about this. Literally two weeks later (July 25th) My grandfather passed away in his sleep. My mind instantly went to my last blog post where I mentioned the dead birds. My mind can't help but to relate them to my loved ones that are gone. Grief stricken and undoubtedly confused, I am still trying to wrap my head around this. Why did the Universe warn me? Why do I feel like a walking omen? Why do I feel like everyone thinks I am crazy when I even mention the dead birds? What do I do next and how am I supposed to feel? These questions roll around in me and it's hard to let them out because I know there are no answers. Regardless, I lost two family members in the same month, TWO weeks apart from each other. This wasn't coincidental. I dunno..my mind is just blown. Am I that spiritually intune with the Universe to receive messages or omens from angels? Or am I buggin'?? My heart is hea...

Two days ago I saw two dead birds. It was around 7am and I was coming home from work. Two days later I found out a close family member died. When I passed the first bird I instantly felt sad because it was a hawk. Hawks to me represent strength and independence. To see it lying on the middle of i285 really caught me off guard. The second bird was a little song bird. It was laying on the ground right off my exit. As I passed this bird I felt fear. Fear that something was coming, but I didn't know what. Fast forward to today--12:11AM. I get a ominous text message from my sister that said "Call Me". I immediately felt sick to my stomach. I knew something was wrong and as I sit here and type this out; I am realizing that I was being warned by the universe this whole time. The dead birds were a sign. My cousin's death hasn't resonated with me but I am all too familiar with this role. It never feels like they are gone until you are sitting in the room with them and ...

Coming back into the social media world I am noticing how watered-down everyone is. It's ANNOYING AS HELL. But before I dive into this rant-post, understand my background and try be as open-minded as possible. I've had Instagram for years (duh) but this year I decided to change my content. I went from promoting my girlfriend's photography to documenting and blogging my natural hair journey. Everything began April 2018 when I had a little over 530 followers. Fast forward to July 2018 and my follower count is 853. My following grew because I KEEPS IT 110%. *Disclaimer: this rant is not just about IG followers; I will get to the point in a minute :)  Going into this, my intentions were to track the growth/health of my SEVERELY heat-damaged hair, build and CONNECT with naturals all over the world (not just in Atlanta), and share my crazy-ass life experiences visually on Instagram and on my blog.  My intentions are STILL the same, however my views of social media dr...
