So about the time that I helped someone with a skill, I believe it was my younger sister. She's 15 years old, and I taught her how to straighten her hair in her own way because she has curly, thick hair and struggles with it a lot. I taught her the techniques and showed her how to use the straightener and how to do it perfectly because I have some skills since I've worked in a salon. I felt so happy doing it, and honestly, I felt like a mother guiding her child. I always feel like this; it is like an older sister thing. I always feel like I am their mother, guiding them through life and teaching them new skills, just showing them how the world works. It is really important to me to see them progressing and doing well in life. That makes me happy in general.
