Buzz Cut to Locs | One Year Journey
Hi! Long time no see… How are you guys?!
This video is about my first year with locs and how they’ve matured and changed over that time. I’m just dipping my toes into the waters of RUclips again to see how I feel about it.
My hair was done at Twist and Cut Salon in Denver by Aura

    My parents became hoarders once I moved out. We had to clean up the house so that they could stay in the house. Some meddling person turned them in to the county. I still don't know who turned them in. I am still mad at that person. My parents had lots of other issues. The county ended up stealing their house/family farm. A place that had been in the family for 48 years. I will never get over it. At least my childhood was good. I feel for you and your siblings. Looks like you have a good place now. Thanks for sharing.

    My mom is a clean hoarder now that shes older but I understand it's a mental illness for her so i try to be supportive of her. She grew up very poor with an alcoholic father. My father grew up the same but both of his parents drank til they got older. My dad is far from a hoarder and my mom's issues bother him to the point he gets rashes. I am more like my dad. While he is not a minimalist he still wants to get rid of stuff. I love getting rid of stuff but have not yet reached my happy spot with that. I am getting there. I would be happy to live with a backack and a couple boxes of things like bedding and kitchen items. I have moved numerous times and it sucked because of other people's things. The last move I had planned on no furniture but I have stage 4 breast cancer in all my bones now so I have to have recliner and a mattress to be more comfortable. I used to sleep on the floor and I loved it! I'm 62. I also used to live in a camper and loved that life. I had plans to move into a converted van til I got sick. Now I'm in an apt. I'm grateful for the niceties of hot water, bathtub and washer dryer but still carry fond memories of my life before. I enjoyed your video very much! ❤

    I know this is like 5 years late but I want you to know how awesome you are. It takes a lot to overcome generational 💩 and it takes a daily practice of intentionality. That and awareness can be exhausting. I grew up with someone with similar tendencies and I try so hard to not 👏🏻be 👏🏻like👏🏻them👏🏻. I remember the small dent feeling after trying to clean up. Kids are not meant to be raised like that. ❤

    When I was living at my parents house. I invested in my room to finally make it fresh, clean, lots of space and have modern design. Meanwhile My mom room was so filled with stuff that you barely even see the floor. When i moved out I specifically told my mom to not involve my room with her habit. I come back here to visit and I came back with my room full of big boxes of clothes, She changed my nice white bedsheets into dirty smelly ones. I somehow have 3 more TV’s that are old and probably broken. She filled my closet with boxes, luggage and clothes that she hoards. I know I dont live here anymore but It’s just sad to see my room turned from a cozy minimalist room into a storage room. I am so done with this sickness. I have the urge to burn everything right in her face or call a uhaul to get rid everything including the ones in her room but i wont act on that cause apparently it wont help.

    I watched this years ago and your story has impacted me so much. I was also raised in hoarding home. I am now 40 and have two kids and I’m really struggling myself to keep up on things. I want to me a minimalist and crave the simple but don’t think I can ever be a minimalist. I do want to recover from intergenerational hoarding and realize it is happening to me. I don’t like how my home is and I work on it and keep trying to make it better. But I have such little time to myself that I get overwhelmed so easily. My heart hurts because I want to do better and feel pretty stuck. I joined your FB group so hopefully that is still active. Thanks for bravely sharing your story!

    I hear things in this that make my heart ache-- parents saying that "one day...one day..." Really resonated with me. Piles of stuff in the hallway. Not being able to throw things away, just wanting it to look more organized. Stuff breaking and staying broken, I had firgotten (blocked it out 🤷🏼‍♀️) about that. Being worried about appearance vs. being truly financially stable but less affluent APPEARING. Not wanting others to come over because the house is dirty. Thank you for sharing, friend. 🙏🏻✊🏻

    💞 Congratulations to you for becoming an emergency room nurse. That's something to be so proud of. It's a lot of hard work. Good for you. The home where I grew up was borderline hoarder. My mom and dad grew up during the Depression and my mom kept *everything.* Think a pantry that you can't step inside because it's totally full of old cottage cheese containers. Full of expired canned food. Full of over a hundred boxes of jello and pudding mixes, so old they had the prices stamped on them in purple ink -- from the early '60s -- 29 cents for a box of Jello. She kept half of her parent's stuff after they died, and inherited the house where my dad's parents lived with all of *their* stuff. My mom didn't get rid of any of their stuff, and was determined to keep all of *our* stuff for us -- my mom had six kids -- so that we'd have it when we wanted it, which we never did. It took four of us still-living siblings a total of eight weeks to clean out my parents' house and barns before we could sell the property. My dad collected stuff too and never got rid of it. I could never have friends over, growing up, either. Tried, once; I was too embarrassed, and my friend left early and never spoke to me afterward. I'm so sorry you grew up that way. My house looks a lot like the room you're sitting in now. I have become a minimalist. When things get a little too "tight" -- too many clothes in the closet, too many dishes in the cupboard -- I am just compelled to go through things and toss. What I learned after cleaning out my parents' house and barns: your kids will not want your stuff. Get rid of it. Use what you use and get rid of the rest. Live today, not for your ancestors and not for future generations who "might want this someday." They don't.

    Shout for joy to ALaHYM our strength; Raise a shout to the ALaHYM of YGhQB (Psalm 81:1). // SHLM & HaB (peace & love). The Name of the Creator is Hayah asher Hayah, as what He told Moshah (Exodus 3:14), preserved in the Hebrew Scriptures. There is a curse to the G-o-d name (Isaiah 65:11-12), preserved in the Hebrew Scriptures. All followers of the Messiah are to do the 7 appointed times (Leviticus 23), but no more animal sacrifices, following the Crucifixion of the Messiah. We are now of the order of MLK TSDQ (King, righteous), to Whom ABRaHM tithed. Ask the Messiah to be your personal Savior. He said to him, I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me (John 14:6). ...for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of Hayah (Romans 3:23). The wages for sin is death but the gift of ALaHYM is Everlasting Life through Messiah Yahushgh our Master (Romans 6:23). That if you confess with your mouth the Master Yahushgh and believe in your heart that ALaHYM raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved (Romans 10:9). He Himself is an Atoning Offering for our sins, and not for ours only but also for all the world (1 John 2:2). The Messiah died on the cross, & Resurrected three days later (presenting Himself as First Fruits to the Father). Please ask Him to be your Savior. He is the ONLY way to Everlasting Life.

Being thrown out of my home and worried about making the wrong choices like it's a life sentence, or this path where you can only go down one fork and there'll never be a do over if you take a wrong turn, you'll be on the wrong path for the rest of my life.

    Thank you so much for sharing! You are very wise and mature. Sad that organised religion has been so damaging. I have always longed for the belonging they experience, but some deeply religious people feel very superficial that makes it hard for me to relate. Interesting that you shrunk away from it even though you had such strong experiences of miracles. All of it sounds like you are simply open to experiencing the divine. There is a Sufi saying in Persian "In the name of that which has no name. Whatever you call it, it'll show up." Love the box analogy.

    I can relate: My whole family were hoarders, I feel guilty when I throw stuff out. I feel like a minimalist trapped in a hoarder's body. The many unfinished projects can also be related to ADHD: always full of ideas, never finish anything. I have several guitars, and other hobby items. Always used to put pressure on myself how I should finish one thing before the next, but if you allow yourself to enjoy them rather than turning them into a nagging task, they won't feel like clutter in quite the same way... You look very beautiful and minimalist too, by the way! Your short hair really brings out your face. <3
