confidence or mere mind trickery

So i guess i can finally say Ive become some what confident in my new "choice" of appearance. Not too long ago i decide to lock my hair. I must admit when i first began i thought my hair would just sprout to the length i wanted in about a month. WRONG WRONG WRONG way to think, hey eh i guess i had to learn the hard way. I must admit though, seeing my mom, friends and people all throughout my community definitely had a little influence on my choice but because theirs are so long i didn't really think before taking action. A couple of months ago, 11/2/09 to be exact, i found rastafari which i wont get into at this point in time. One practice for the men though is to not shave or cut ones hair at all, obviously i was already on that right path. But something that sparked my interest though was the meaning of behind many people who have locks. For me this time in my life is VERY intricate to say the least, especially with college, work, family, friends and pretty much everything in between constantly changing. For every year that i have my locs i will forever hold the memories of my life's journey. Yes it may already seem as though I'm content with the shortness of my hair..lol..but i haven't always been. oh no. It took some time, and encouragement through friends, family and youtube videos for me to build self confidence with the way I looked as I walked out the house. Just around a month ago i was sporting an oversized wool beenie i purchased one day at work. I mean don't get me wrong it was nice the first week i wore it but after about a month of wearing it every single day?? nuh uh not a good look. Its been a while now since I've even touched that damn hat WOOT WOOT!!! Might i add my hair fortunately seems to be growing at an amazingly rapid pace maybe thats why i haven't worn my hat..hmmm?? that shall be all for now i was feeling kinf of chatty, and be it that i JUST created a blog why not have this be my first i know its kind of a mess but oh well

heres one of the videos i look to for inspir...i think im in L.O.V.E :D


p.s.--> sorry if im a tad bit all over the place :( this is like my VERY first blog like wine itll get better with time..lol..bye now
