Contest end date corrected y'all... sorry for the confusion.
ReplyDeleteI'm fly because my family was extra poor when I grew up. When I was 6 my dad joined the military to provide for us. From there it was like living in a single family household. Neither of my parents went to college, both did go to the school of hard knocks. But they encouraged us to get an education. I was the only child that did. I went to college on a full scholarship and then when to law school on scholarship. I was hired and remain the only black attorney in my firm. I spent 3 years doing appeals. The last year, I locked my hair and freed my mind. Even though I was in the "ugly stage" I applied and was hired to do capital trials. Even without experience in trials I was hired because they said I had a confidence about myself. Today, I take my short locks into Oklahoma court rooms with confidence and attempt to win over "okies". Am I fly? Of course. How do you know? Because I just told you so.
ReplyDeleteI love it Just Butterflies! Very inspirational!

ReplyDeleteWhy am I so fly? cause i rock my natural hair all the time and never shy away from it. I embrace my coils and curls and do my very best to take the best care of them. I constantly aim to keep myself educated in up to date hair care tips and tricks as well as various things. I also just strive to be a beacon of Black women by the way i carry myself. I hold my head head and show pride in my HAIRitage. Some times a rock a mohawk, some times i go curly on my 'fro. I love myself, my hair and i'm FLY!
I am fly because I am ME! After so many years of conforming and viewing who and what I should be based on others, I can now say that I am who God has created me to be. I am fly because I am raising my children to be confident, proud of their kinky hair and brown skin and not afraid to speak up and be heard! And lastly I am fly because I surround myself with other Fly people and we hold each other accountable!! :)
