So today was day 4. I wish I could say it's been easy, but I have had some huge challenges. With my trich I also get really bad scalp sores, which make me want to pull even more. My main challenge is not pulling the hair for the site spots specifically. I have to share that prayer is the only thing that got me through it. I sat and I prayed a long prayer to the Lord to pull me through because there is no other way that I can overcome this. I was able to get to sleep with out ruining my streak and have been in consistent prayer to stay on the path. There will always be sores , but I don't want to be the woman that always pulls. I want to be able to feel the breeze on my scalp, to put my hair in a ponytail, to wear braids, things most women take for granted. I am absolutely determined to reach that point. I want to be able to deal with the sores WITHOUT destroying my hair or hurting myself further. I'm sure that with time I'll get them less and less. But I must say, something about this time feels different. It's just me and God this time and I know that with HIM I can not fail.
Be encouraged!
