Around the time of the ball dropping in Times Square I set aside time to review. Review the past year, and develop a plan for the next year.
It seems like 2011 just flew by! For much of it, I feel like I was auto pilot, the details seem blurry. Our multi-tasking, social media, smart phones, tablets, gadgets, tv and whatever distractions from faith, friends and family. In 2012, I want to slow down and be a little more present. I started 2011 by sharing tips to achieve your Resolution.

During college…my favorite past time was Spoken Word. I never wrote myself, but would get goosebumps listening.
From the video press release:
The title of the video itself, “HAIR PEACE,” comes to serve that very
purpose: for us as African-Americans to come to peace with our natural
hair. HAIR PEACE does not just educate us, but it also serves as an
anthem for our natural-haired women and men everywhere!
Research products with natural ingredients and maintain healthy hair using Wenhaircare.
This spoken word speaks on the parallel between loving our natural
hair and loving ourselves all in a Euro-centric society focused around
everything that we are not. HAIR PEACE does not intend to demote those
who do not have natural hair but to instead it seeks to eradicate the
negative stereotypes of natural hair that stem from a society that
demeans us if we do not look like the straight-haired women in the
media.
Did you see the Miss Universe competition last night? Congratulations to Miss Leila Lopes Miss. Angola who won the crown of Miss Universe. I kind of figured she would win when one of the comentators compared Miss. Leila Lopes to former Miss Universe Wendy Fitzwilliams (Big Up to Trinidad and Tobago).
Although Keylin Suzette Gomez - Miss Honduras did not make it to the final 16… I was very happy to see her natural curls!
It really made her stand out from the other ladies…
