I think I am getting to the question.

I am always practicing being more mindful of everything I do and the nature around me. I do pay attention to my script, especially when I am stressed or have a lot on my mind.

I love "Ginger Essence" by Origins.

I choose sometimes based on color. I like neutrals though. Everything in my apartment is off-white and neutral, kind of like a canvas for me to paint myself on or in.

>why twists? why style it?

I usually put my hair up in various styles. I like to coif my hair and change the shapes on my head based on what brings out my face. I have kinky twists in a spiky ponytail with a cascade down the back of my neck. My hair is natural and long. I like twists because I like the way they look and they are easy to maintain. I can do double-stranded twist cornrows so I do that in the front and I have free/single ones in the rest. I twisted in two butterfly beads and I have two tiny glittery bumblebees clipped into my hair.

>things say about you and

I think everything I do relates to my art and love of nature, from the tiny bumblebees to the neutral canvases I paint on or put myself in.

This was cool! Thanks for this.

Demand it, overstand it, then you handle it

"Know thyself"

"Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, "I will never leave you or forsake you". So we may boldly say, "The Lord is my helper, I will not fear. What can man do to me?"
-- Hebrews 13:5,6
