Woven Through Generations

Woven Through Generations

When we engage in the art of hair braiding, we infuse it with the purity of our intentions, a gesture that takes on profound significance when it's the tresses of a beloved individual we weave. The act of braiding becomes a powerful symbol, as we intertwine three sections of hair, each one representing the mind, the body, and the spirit.

In my youth, my mother would lovingly braid my hair, creating cherished moments that have left an indelible mark on my heart. As the passage of time bestows maturity, I find myself continuing this timeless tradition by tenderly braiding her hair. In this cycle, we bridge the generations, preserving this beautiful connection that transcends both time and space. The hands that perform this act of love and tradition are mine, as I braid my mother's hair, perpetuating the legacy of our shared bond.

Californians know this area as Los Angeles County, Orange County and the Channel Islands.

Well I was able to get somethings done. Not as many as I wanted to. I felt lethargic and slow. Like my body was extra heavy. Not sure

I didn't very good last week. Not sure what happened. I had to go back to understanding why I want these things. Took the oldest to a splatter room. They seemed to enjoy it. It helped me get out of my head. Work is picking up and going to be taking a lot of time. Did five 12 hr sifts last week.

I did nothing I was supposed to except 20 mins of physical activity. Laundry not dishes are piled up but damn it, I should have done it. So cold, so tired when I got home.

Reflection: I don't like the intellectual work of being a student. It makes these classes so hard. I'd rather be doing the physical work.

Tomorrow:

Complete one paragraph of assignment. Complete step goal. Put away laundry. One load of dishes and put away. That should be enough to keep things consistent with out over burdening my broken brain. Caffeine will help.
