I wasn’t going to write today. I was pretty sure up until about eight thirty pm, where it felt like I was receiving new insight and before you know it, I whipped up my Word App and began to write. It’s quite uncanny how fitting the prompt of today is. Maybe it’s because today feels like a day to be reflective or maybe it’s because I have too much and yet too little to say, then this prompt comes and I have that final push to lay it bare.

So, I thought I could wow you guys with an epic thriller. Scrolling through the list of newly released movies on the net, I was drawn to the title of the movie I’m about to review. I read a little summary of the movie and sensing that it was the kind of thriller that I’d be able to stomach, I quickly downloaded it. It helped that it revolved around something a lot of us are into. Skincare. So yeah, without much ado, allow me to present:

Yayyyy, I finally get to give my review on this book. I was done with it last week and can I just say that this book took me on a ride like no other. I wasn’t feeling out of sorts or anything.

Lol, I’m already getting ahead of myself. Let’s get into the review.

I don’t know if you’ve ever tried it. After a long laugh at something, you breathe deeply and listen to how you’re feeling internally. For a long time, when I was in my most silent state, with my mind still, that’s when I know if I’m truly happy or not. I thought to myself whether or not I was truly happy. Because why was there this perpetual heat lodged in my chest that sat invincibly. Feels weird but you can only notice it when you truly pay a deeper attention to how you’re truly feeling.

I think hair is one of those natural gifts that used to oppress me a lot. Not body or any of the other more obvious things, but hair. I’d see girlies with my type of hair and they’d have it all taken care of with their protective styles and you’d watch it grow longer and longer every month.

You know it the second you see him, that he’s the most beautiful man you’ve ever seen. A small sigh escapes your lips and you find yourself nearly sliding down your locker. “Can you possibly embarrass yourself any further?” your best friend, David, whispers from behind you, jolting you out of what can only be described as very wholesome thoughts.
