I feel myself growing! I use to be scared of that growth. Now I embrace it whole heartily. I use to be nervous to speak my mind to and in front of those with more experience, wealth, education, you name it, more than I had. Now I can stand in a crowd of thousands and not fear being the one that stands out! I can speak, walk tall, and hold my head up high. I use to worry what my clients would think when they saw my natural hair, and then I experienced something almost super natural. The pride I felt when I walked down the hall, into that boardroom filled with those in high positions and great influence, knowing that I held them in the palm of my hands. The look of aw that went across the faces of those people in that room, priceless. I use to worry what people would think, my past, a single mom, no husband to speak of, raising two very different children on my own. Then I realized, I have never been on my own, not truly. Someone somewhere has always had my back when I needed it the most when it came to my children. From my OES sistars, to my church members, to total strangers who later became great friends. The support I have acquired was and is heaven sent! I use to wonder what would happen to me down the road, the fear of the great unknown bothered the heck out of me. Now I can not wait to see whats around the next corner! When I look back over my life, and I think things over. I can truly say, that Ive been blessed! I have a testimony! I thank God for it, for the challenges, the success, the life lessons, and the complications that has been every bit of my past up until today! I look forward to where grace and mercy will lead me, the greatness in store for me, and the stepping stones to success that God will bring me down. I have been blessed! I am blessed! I live a life filled with Favor! ~CL
