The dream seemed very real. I could feel everything as if it was not my subconscious mind.
I was standing in a field of green grass,
I caught a glimpse of some swaying colors,
I looked around and saw the ground was filled with butterflies,
Their colors were of yellow, red, orange and grey-
They shimmered in the afternoon sun's ray.
My hands reached out to catch the flurry of color,
Suddenly all were gone with the sway of air.
I looked up and saw the clear sky was filled up with black cloud.
A blue bird was flying high close to black cloud premise,
I heard the storm with high noise.
Lightning flickered over the high sky-
Excited, unsure, scared at the same time,
the blue bird was falling down,
Probably it was not a real vision-
as I looked around, no storm, no bird I found.
I felt like I had been swaying in air,
I could see the glimpse of the biggest tower,
I swirled around it and felt like faded as my aura was gone,
Suddenly wind shifted and diverted my attention,
And I found myself standing with a secure position.
Nothing happened what I saw in my dream,
Now I understand, I thought of some wishes which flourished in my unconscious mind- beam.

This may sound odd to you, but I only washed my hair once I was almost 20. I lived quite a privileged life as the baby of the family so my hair would be washed and styled by my sisters or a hairstylist. I had to learn how to do everything by myself as a student living in a predominantly white area. I was literally the only black girl in the “village.” My hair and I took some interesting turns on our journey of exploration. I would have loved a site like Mane Hookup to help me navigate my hair and help me understand how and what to do with my hair. I would probably never have cut my hair into a horrendous pixie cut or used my GHDs quite so often. I would have also been a part of a community where I could access the support I needed to help me understand my hair.
