HAIR IS OVERRATED

I have always had curly hair.  It used to be so long, to the middle of my back.  I loved it long and curly.  But, then I got sick.  Breast Cancer they told me.  When the time came and I started my chemotherapy, I told my husband I wanted to cut my hair off myself.  Shave my head I said!  I was not about to let Cancer take or decide when I lost my hair.  It was going to be on my terms. And with that, we went outside and he shaved my head and then, he shaved his.  We were a matched pair!  My hair has since grown back, but never that long.  These days I don’t much care about how long my hair is or that I even have it.  Because hair, like life, is a gift.  I know I am beautiful with or without hair.  It’s not the hair that makes a person, it’s his or her inner being.  Love yourself and let your beautiful light shine!

LIFE IS A GIFT

They say in order to write well, you should write about what you know.  This is what I know…  My grandmother used to tell me “be careful what you wish for because in a blink of an eye you’ll be older and time will have gone by so quick, too quick.”  When you’re younger, you don’t see it.  But when you get older and you look back, you find yourself saying the same thing to your children, nieces and nephews.  It’s funny, this thing called life.  Some don’t cherish it as they should.  Some, take it for granted without realizing what they are doing.  When, in fact, life is a gift.  Every morning when you open your eyes, stretch your limbs and love on your honey, children and/or your pets that are your children, this is a gift.  Appreciate where you are, love yourself for who you are and by no means change yourself for anyone other than yourself.  Love life and yourself for when you do it will spread to those around you.
