Human trafficking and makeup....who woulda thought that I would be here today with both of those passions and actually doing something with both of them for the same purpose. Both the ups and downs in my life have brought me here.
Recently I lost my "every day job" (the one that makes consistent income) . I'm not gonna lie, I was STRESSED at first. I tried so hard to hold myself together. It was hard for the first few days if i'm honest but I knew I had to snap out of it quick. This happens to so many people everyday that have no support system, have kids to feed, or lose everything because of it. That did not happen to me, so I knew I could not sulk in my own pity. I have those things, and there was no way I was going to waste a moment without moving forward with a good attitude.
After being a bit frantic and getting wisdom from others around me. I decided to work really hard to make be Lovely my job. I decided that this was my opportunity. At first it didnt feel like a "good opportunity" but when I chose to look at the positives I realized thats exactly what it was. So, onward I go with just that. Putting everything I can into this is the goal I now have. When I stepped out and made that choice, to create a supposed negative experience and choose to make it positive and worth while, things just started to happen. Things just started coming together and continue to. I dont deserve this nor do I take it for granted. When it comes down to it, its the hearts of others and the support that have gotten be Lovely to this point.
Thats what I want. This is not about me. Its about the people that are touched and broken by sex trafficking and how horrific this problem is against the human soul. I am reminded of that every day with the people I have met even just within these past few weeks. The stories from the past and the new ones I have the privilege of hearing.
be Lovely , my makeup company is a passion and an income but what be Lovely is as a whole is my life. Thanks to all who have supported, from buying makeup, donating to my Uganda trip, words of encouragement and wisdom, financial helps, giving talents to making be Lovely "look" better :) and the individual stories that inspire me to continue.
Onward!
PS. be Lovely website is under construction because of one of those great people! :)
