Naturally Unfolding

...breath in. breath out... I remember the feeling that came over me in December of 2006, a few days before Christmas when I went to New York to visit Kat. Bliss met uncertainty but faith overpowered it all. Since faith is the substance of things hope for and the evidence of things not seen., I took a leap with many visual influences. I had Kat, who recently chopped off her long, thick, straight relaxed hair, Jessica who decided a few years ago, not sure how many, to allow her natural hair to gently grow, without touching it and Stacey, who all her life attests she has allowed her hair to naturally unfold--standing in front of my eyes as a stern visual testimony that: when one allows their natural hair grow...the beauty is surprisingly on so many different levels unfathomable.

And as I watch this process unfold, my level of excitement grows each day...This new beginning for me is breathtaking.
