We can see the beauty in everything but ourselves!

We can see the beauty in everything but ourselves!


It is so funny that we can all see the beauty in flowers, art, music, and many other things, but we cannot see the beauty in ourselves.

I had to confront some things in my life because although I am confident in myself, there are times that I second-guess myself.

My sister gave me a compliment and said "You can do anything that you put your mind to," at that time I was dealing with internal discouragement and self-doubt.

She gave me a strange look but never said anything.  Honestly, I was talking myself out of being great.

Many times when you are going through some things, it is so hard to accept praise, and you also don't feel beautiful.
 The truth is, God gave us everything that we need to create a beautiful life, and we just have to grasp
the concept of being everything that he needs us to be, living our best life, and doing the best that we can.

We are beautiful because of the life we were given.  If you do not feel beautiful, he gives us the tools to make ourselves into that beautiful portrait that we wish to be.  No, we may not look beautiful to everyone, but as long as we can live in our beauty and accentuate the positives that we do have, we will live our truth and grab hold of the wonderful things that we are given in this life.
Be beautiful and be great, accept your beauty standard, and live and create your beautiful life.
Take time for yourself and take the time to just relax and smell the beautiful roses.

 Break the habit of self-doubt and believe that you can do anything and have any beautiful thing that the Lord gives you.
Give thanks to the Lord for giving you this life, and don't be afraid to ask him to help you, and make changes in your life that will propel you to move forward and not be stuck in self-doubt.

Should I Go Natural?



Anonymous Question: 
 I heard that you are natural but you wear wigs all the time; I would like to go natural myself but I am work in a professional environment and I would like to move up into upper management.  Are you ashamed of your hair?  I want to see what your advice is before I do the big chop.


SashaMoniqueTalks:
First and foremost, I want to thank you for asking this question.
I have been natural for five years and I also went natural another time in my life for four years.

The reason I went natural is because I have Androgenic Alopecia.
I am not ashamed of my hair at all.  If I didn't have Alopecia I would like to wear my hair in different styles and would press it sometimes to wear it straight.

The question that you asked regarding wearing natural hair in a professional environment; I would honestly have to tell you if you are trying to move into upper management, I would find a natural style that is very neat and refined. 

 If you are unable to do these styles because of hair length or other issues, hair could be added to 
make a beautiful style.  You could also go natural but wear a wig at work and wear your beautiful natural hair while you are out of work.

I also like the look of a nice, neat, short Afro.  Unfortunately, you have to fit in with the work environment to get the position that you want.
