#beenaroughfewweeks

Here’s a story in 3 parts. Took out the #passionbraids last night. Picked out my hair and got it straightened for a yearly trim. 💇🏿‍♀️ #shook Y’all my #naturalhair nappy hasn’t been this long since high school. Guess I haven’t been scissors happy in a while. Oh well. Soon as I stepped outside the humidity had her puff right back up. But at least I got a well needed trim. 🤦🏿‍♀️🤷🏿‍♀️#beenaroughfewweeks https://www.instagram.com/p/B5yoJ1ZBAxtrYZr831pEGPuocRIFs78jA5QBow0/?igshid=1jc31o44zqi5f

Even when countries go to war with each other, when our foreign policy dictates that our country gets militarily involved in the affairs of other nations, when the internal struggles of countries lead to bloodshed, I don't lose faith in the possibility of peace. It is only when we treat each other with disrespect, use harsh words, and cease to communicate that my pessimism grows. Shalom bayit - peace begins in the home, at home.
