Out of the many people in the Bible, Paul is one of my favorites. He was educated, had diverse heritage/dual citizenship and went out to Asia minor (which is now Turkey and a few of the surrounding nations) to spread the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. Like Paul I am now being educated, I share multiple ethnicities and I want to go across the world to help people and share the message of Christ. Nowadays, there are so many ways that can be done, but one must be prepared. Aw preparation! All my life I have felt like a nomadic goat herder or shepherdess moving from place to place only realizing that I was supposed to be somewhere else barely after I settled in the place before! Anyways I digress...I do not particulary care for dressing up but in the capacity in which I would like to work I must look presentable and unfortunately that definition has taken on a different meaning nowadays especially for women.
Women must be fashionable with high heels, cute snug suits, smell nice, with smooth straigh hair and look put together all the time. Yes I said smooth, straight hair since it is still the most preferred type. Anytime a woman that arranges marriages for billionaires suggests to all her textured female clients to lose the curl in order to get an eligible man, you know it still remains the preference. Women have to be all these things and be cute and hopefully smart. Thank God times have progressed some where amongst many women non-straight hair is in! I'm smart so does that count?? :D Ok I know I need more than than...My dilemma is that I have been natural, curly/wavy hair chick without chemicals and rare hot presses for...oh how many years? One..two..seven years now and I had no clue really what I was doing! I followed to curly gurl technique at the time, got someone else to braid it (since I'm conrow challenged), always wore it in a bun or straightened and now my hair is much longer, thick and I must find a way to merge the two:
