Shaved
I've been talking about shaving my hair off for about 4 months now and this all stemmed from a mental transition that became uncontrollable from the month of June. At the time I wanted to shave my hair because I had no control over my mentality; my emotions were manic. My physicality was the only thing I had a little control over; I slept little, ate somewhat adequately and worked out hard to distract myself from my running thoughts. I tried to outrun a cyclone and it eventually caught up with me. This week I mentioned shaving my hair and thoughts like, "what would people think, what would my mum say (hair is a MASSIVE aspect to the beauty of a woman, especially her daughters), should I just wait to see if I change my mind?" ... wait, I forgot that I am my OWN person with my OWN personality representing my OWN identity. So, I shaved my hair not because it was an impulse decision but because it was MY decision and I'm feeling pretty bloody fantastic about it. Hey people; live your life the way you want to. Be yourself because everyone else is already taken & you're a pretty cool human being.
