That's me, really it is me in 2002 Zulu Dancing at a coming of age celebration ceremony, my mother's half sister's celebration and I wasn't even used to doing it..... And I don't mean to blow my own horn here but I did it exceptionally and those who have seen it done would back me up.. You don't believe it? Check out one of the people who his an old pro at this.
Ha ha, just remembering the good old days and wanted to brag a little, ha ha.
But more seriously, I remember this day like it was yesterday, the girl in yellow next to me helped me put together this little gear and when she suggested we go bra-less I put my foot down.... Traditionally that's how it's done but I just couldn't. She did though, hats off to her that's what I said.
I remember and miss these days.

Great pictures! Great memories. I have some things I hold in my heart when I am down on myself and life. They are what help us most. Good for you, Sili Seraph.

Hi-
great pictures - and wow - you can kick really high. I, like you, remember thjings I used tobe able to do. I feel the loss and grief of adjusting to my limits. I try though to "live" my potential rather than my limit. Easier said that done at times, I know.
Be well and :live" your potential.
love to you
Gail
peace.....
