Recognition

So, I'm in the bookstore and a girl with a nice, full afro puff stops her conversation with a friend to tell me she liked my hair.. that was the most wonderful compliment.

It was somewhat empowering to receive that from another natural. Honestly, it wasn't until then that I would have considered myself natural. It wasn't until,then that I even felt natural. I've just been feeling like a girl with short hair.

Back in class, another girl stopped to compliment my shoes.. I'm feeling pretty good right now.
