Ten inches of long blonde hair are gone off my head, and I couldn't tell you how much I love it!
I had a friend who donated fourteen inches of her hair to Locks of Love, and she warned me about the depressing "I miss my long hair!" stage I might go through sometime in the first couple of weeks I have my short hair.
However I haven't had that stage yet, and I think I know why...
The other day in English class we were given the opportunity to free write (A lot of my friends hate free writing, but I secretly take any chance in class to write, so when the teacher tells me to write I think it's fabulous). My teacher always gives us topics to write about, but I can never relate to them, and I suck at topic writings, but my friend Maddie said, "Write about your hair cut!"
Well, how could I pass up the opportunity to write about my "fab" new hair?
As the writer I am I decided not to write a "My hair is so cute! Blah blah blah" piece. Instead I kept my piece rather vague, but underneath it all it was about the hair cut.
Read a little of it won't you?
"Now that it is done, I have no regrets.
I did it for love, and love is all I have received."
That's really all I can remember off the top of my head.
But the whole point of it is that I did it for love. I did it because I love Sally, and I wanted to do this to honor her, and a little bit because I was getting sick of my split ends...
As Sara Bareilles puts it "Only one good thing worth trying to be, and it's love."
Diamonds, you need to surround yourself with love.
People who are full of love, things you love, and the actions you do that should be an act of love.
I don't miss my old hair because I know someone out there is going to be so excited when they get my hair that I don't have the time to second guess myself in what I did, and because I have been told that Sally would be wicked proud of me, and I think she is.
So Diamonds, I have a new challenge for you,
Do one thing every day, and it has to be something you love. Hang out with a friend, take a nap, read a good book, eat some fro yo! Do what ever makes you happy, but do a different thing everyday so you don't get bored of it.
Each and everyone of you deserves a beautiful life, but you have to make it beautiful yourself and I can't help you with that. I can only give you the idea.
