So it’s been years. She’s accomplished  so much. Things that have surpassed even her biggest dreams.  She makes an excellent salary. She has healthy adorable kids and a great husband. Her home is big, beautiful and new. Her day begins with a prayer of gratitude and guidance.... Yet she’s missing something. Something essential to her well being, her peace, her fulfillment. She realizes

Be Inspired by your best you. The thought in your mind that reminds you, you're alive. The thought that gives you hope and makes you smile. The thought that keeps you moving even when you don't have a smile left. It'll be okay. Go to sleep and relax your soul, then slowly but surely wake up.  I'm not starting over, I've come to far. But I will change courses. I'm not leading any more; I'm

It never ceases to amaze me. The intensity of my mind and the calmness of my soul. I am an ocean, a storm, a fire, and a cool breeze. I will always be this way, anticipating the next emotion like a gift... a gift I don't always want, but I rather have something than nothing at all. I am what happens when passion and peace collide. I am at peace with everything that I am, yet I passionately look

Don't think about it too much. Every present becomes a past and every thought isn't meant to last. Force a smile and wait awhile..... it'll eventually be effortless. Love, Nikki

Never get too attached to things. Things don't last and things can't love you back. It's the feelings and emotions involved with those things that you can hold on to; but hold on knowing that life intended for you to keep only what can be felt in your heart and mind, everything else drifts away.Sincerely,Nicole

Memories are magical. The GOOD ones of course. The warmth and smiles you receive from them. First dates, laughs, parties, friends, trips and vacays. Time flys by so fast, so I'm trying to live each moment as if it's a future good memory.- Love Nikki Summer Vacation 2014 - A cruise in the Carribean after Hubby's return from Deployment.

It's unfortunate but entertaining when people put negativity out into the atmosphere, then we all get to see it come right back and bite them. I love life's way of showing us that what goes around, comes around!  Be kind, be nice, be positive, stay far away from gossips, troublemakers, and negative people; Then lay back and reap the benefits of a much happier life!  God bless Nikki :)

We make time for the things we deem important in life....These days relaxing when possible, taking care of my Baby doll, working full time, watching my recorded shows on DVR, sleeping, and attempting to maintain some type of Non-cyber social life leaves little to no room for blogging!I wonder if the passion for it will ever truly return?

I recently found out about SheaMoisture products during their sale at Target. I've been on a 15 year search for GOOD hair products for my type 4, dry hair. I've thoroughly educated myself about my hair type and sampled around with HUNDREDS of hair products never feeling completely satisfied with what they did for my hair! Now I would like to sum up how I feel about this line... THANK-YOU SHEA

I was put on this earth with a purpose, and though I'm still finding out what that is, I know that part of it is to Help and Inspire Others; if not with my words, at least with my Actions. I will strive to be my best, for myself and everyone that graces my presence.  God Bless, Nikki :)

This time I vow to do it right! I am currently 11 weeks post relaxer (texlaxed), and I don't plan on ever going back to relaxing. I guess you can say "I'm going Natural".

Its not the destination, but the journey.... A thought that keeps running through my mind as I look at what I've accomplished over the years. My career, home, husband, and now my beautiful baby girl. I remember years ago crying, wondering When?! I was so close but felt so far from being where I am today. Now that I'm here all I seem to think about is the journey and how freakin Great it was! The

Too many of us have gifts to share, yet we don't share them out of fear, shyness, and doubts. We "Dim" our lights so that they don't shine enough for others to see.... Stepping out of our norm is hard because what if we aren't accepted? But..... What if we were? What if we turned up our lights Bright and lots of people Loved it?! We shared our unique gifts with those we feel could benefit most

A little over a year ago I reached my goal of thick, mid-back relaxed hair. I was sooooooo HAPPY and after receiving numerous compliments from family and strangers I was even more convinced that I had done something Great! Growing relaxed African American Hair is a challenge. My hair type of fine 4a hair tends to be dry and breaks easily. Moisturizing weekly, trimming away split ends,

It's not the things that change day by day; Her makeup, outfit, hair, and the way it sways... but its deeper. A thing that will only get away if she lets it.

My favorite things in the world. Just the mere thought of them can increase my heart rate and paint a smile on my face. I'm instantly warm and all I can think behind the sweet visions is that I've lived a wonderful life full of laughs, learning experiences, and friends that have all left a piece of themselves with me. I've always been in Love with Life and when I think back on all that's happened
