From the Publisher “April showers bring May flowers and May flowers bring June flowers.” June – Prom is over and for most of you school is out or soon will be. Some of you have even graduated – Congratulations! And as we move into the summer, most of you will take some type of Inventory of your clothes and shoes, keeping some, and replacing others. You probably can’t wait to get to the mall to see what new outfits you need to get for the upcoming summer months. Well, while inventorying your clothes and shoes is no doubt very important, it is just as important to take inventory of yourself- physically, mentally and emotionally – see what you need to keep and see what you need to replace! Physically - Are you taking optimal care of yourself? This means eating in a healthy manner, keeping a healthy weight, getting in some type of exercise and getting enough sleep – LOL (this is a hard one for most young people). If you have a medical condition that requires treatment, are you following the plan? Miss.Sis Mentally – Challenge yourself to greater heights. Make sure that negative thinking or fear of the unknown is not keeping you from realizing your dreams, whatever they may be. Try something new this summer that will make you exercise your mental “muscles”. Believe in yourself and remember that with God all things are possible! Emotionally – This is a big one! Get in touch with your own emotions, get to know your “inner self ”. Don’t let others define you. For instance, if you are shy and your inner Diva is screaming to get out, then become Miss Diva this summer, the way that you imagine that she should be. If you have an inner dancer, singer, model, musician, poet or whatever, let it out, out, out this summer for sure and you will be oh so glad you did! (Of course you will keep it respectable). Mentally - Our relationship section ask the questions, “Are you really into him or are you just pleasing the crowd?” Emotionally – Our hair and beauty sections challenge you to be as bold and beautiful as you can be and without apology! Ladies, with all that being said, it is now time to sit back and relax and thumb slowly through the pages, of Miss Sis Magazine, we know that you will thoroughly enjoy this issue! Much love, And if you need a little help taking your inventory, not to worry, we got your back! We have some awesome articles that will help you to take stock! Physically – Our health section takes you on a tour of Keloids, something to think about as you are getting all “pierced up”. Dr. Alicia Cain Publisher 3
