“Life is too short to be anything less, than your  very B.E.S.T.”
-Tiara

A year ago today, I made a decision to share my views with this world. With positivity in one hand and sassy in the other.

There is an abundance of fashion, beauty, and mommy bloggers. Nothing wrong with that, but there is something missing. Sometimes we focus too much on outer appearances and rarely explore what it means to be secure in our own skin.

Sassy Curls Mission:
“Helping women embrace their individuality, value their self-worth and discover their dreams.”

I hope I accomplished providing inspiration and confidence for all types of women. I am still on my self-discovery journey, and will continue to use this forum to share such insight.

Until next time,

Rituals

Leave a comment / Uncategorized
“Be grateful for what you have and 
work towards what you feel is missing.”-Tiara

There is something so intimate and interesting about rituals. Having a routine sets the foundation when starting and ending the day.

After pressing the snooze button a few times, I look forward to my morning coffee or sometimes tea. Eating something sweet and savory for breakfast is quite a delight too.

Then off to the shower to wake up and rinse my curls. Finally, after hair/makeup, and some delicious perfume, it is off to my daily grind.

Jam out to the latest tunes on the radio and do the 9-5 hustle dance. Joy for the afternoon because it is lunchtime. The work day is ending. Time to sweat out any frustrations at the gym or to simply regain focus.

Maybe some television, a book chapter later, with a hot tea. A diary entry and nightly prayers to gives thanks for another day.

Until next time,

Here’s to always being your B.E.S.T!

Eulogize

And if you were to leave, what would you leave behind? 
Live a life where people can’t imagine a life without you.
Create a legacy filled with honesty, respect, admiration, with a dash of humility.
If you want to make an impact in the world…be remembered for the good deeds you have done.

Until next time,

Glitter skies

Sometimes, I take for granted the beauty of the night. How intriguing, magical, mysterious, and inviting it can be.

Observing the story of stars with some good company, in a field filled with our dreams. I look forward to the nighttime dance of glittering stars.

As the roar of the train sets with the sun, I can only hope to have such a night where my imagination can wander and enjoy being in the moment, my moment.

There are no boundaries or limits in this universe. Therefore, you should not put limits on your ideas.

If you plan on gazing the night sky, there is an iPhone app that will help guide your journey. Feel free to share how you will spend your sparkly dates with the sky.

Twinkle, twinkle my little stars…

Until next time,
