My Loc Journey: Eleventh Month
During this dreadlock transitional journey that I’ve taken, I’ve learned so much about myself as an individual.
During this dreadlock transitional journey that I’ve taken, I’ve learned so much about myself as an individual. To be present in every aspect of my growth has been not only a challenge, but life affirming in which I’ve discovered how I react to things in my life, resolve and put processes in place to elevate ME.
This being my 11th month of my dreadlock journey has been such a pleasure to embark on, and I look forward to the second year and what that may bring. This has been quite spiritual in nature. I’ve also grown closer to my inner spirit and listening to how it moves me in different aspects of my life.
If you just take the time to feel it within your vessel, you’ll recognize it for “spirit” and know that you need to listen.
Surrender to the process in which you find yourself, and you’ll grow as a human being in more ways than you imagined.
I am within this process and am following through with it, and will chronicle the second part of my journey with you beyond my one year anniversary!
