Hey folks
My name is Joseph Woodward, I'm male and from Derby, UK. I found this site a couple of weeks ago and have been avidly reading pages and pages in their entirety. I am massively inspired by most here it would seem, and due to the mindfulness, compassionate and loving-kindness that I saw here, alongside your heightened discernment, I succumbed to making an account; enabling me to engage in wordly conversation with all.
Upon turning vegeterian six months, and then vegan four months ago, I have rapidly increased my awareness of the environment, interdependance and peace. I have recently returned from a three month travel in Canada where I self studied International Development, Environmental Management and Inner Peace at a high rate; around 10 hours a day 'actual' study, and daily self-actualization. I do not even believe that I have scraped the surface of understanding the above; however, I can only see a bright future in the journey ahead by making the first steps.
I play didgeridoo and read frequently --perhaps too frequently!
I decided that I was going to commit to a natural (after the initial tnr and slight backcombing) dreadlock journey two days ago. I did tnr and backcomb slightly, and very slightly, maybe an inch or so near the root (was this a bad thing, in the sense that this will affect it's locking from here on out?). My hair is only 6-7 inches long, but because of the aforementioned, you can see dreadlocks already. I do, however, have a crazy amount of loose hair and frizziness; I truly like the beauty of this though --it seems natural.
I have attached a picture that was the day after the slight tnr and backcombing for those interested, and I shall bid you guys farewell for the time being.
In peace, love, and compassion
Joseph Woodward. x
