Fabulous Times with Fabulous Girls!

(With some fabulous girls during the Fabulous Female Expo , January 2011)

Greetings!

I had the recent opportunity to give inspirational talks to girls at Barbara Jordan Elementary and the Fabulous Female Expo in Fort Worth! These experences not only inspired the young ladies in attendance, but resonated within me as well. No matter how many years and accomplishments we accumulate, children always have a way of "teaching" us. Interacting with these girls reminded me of the significance of the crown. These appearances were the first time many of the girls ever encountered a "queen". From that, they were in awe of every word I spoke, and every move I made. The principles I shared for authentic beauty truly resonated with them. They seemingly clung to every piece of encouragement shared.

This is my aim: To inspire countless girls toward world-changing, undying beauty as Miss Black Texas USA. The journey has only begun! Please keep my efforts in your thoughts and prayers, and NEVER underestimate how your presence affects the little ones around you.

Redefine beauty,

New Years Greetings from Ocielia

Hello!

A few days ago I celebrated my 26th birthday. Nothing fancy, I truly took the day to rest and reflect on the past year. My birthday is actually when the new year starts for me. Instead of thinking in terms of January 1st as being a fresh start, the day I celebrate another of year of life is my fresh start. Although my birthday is literally only days away from New Years, I still find this helpful in keeping my dreams in perspective.

With a new year comes excitement and anticipation of great things, and I hope the best for you this 2011. I encourage you to reflect on the things (and individuals) that truly strengthened you in 2010, and to take those lessons with you for a greater 2011!

Wishing you a great 2011,

Ocielia
