Changes

I tell you there is nothing that screams I need a fresh start like changing your appearance. All winter I have been growing out my hair and I had every intention to keep growing it. Then a few really significant things happened in my life this past week and I needed to just do something, anything! You know how that goes. In the past if I was upset or felt bad I would go buy something (as long as it was reasonably price and stayed within my budget and was actually an item that I could use)...OK so I never said I was a crazy impulse shopper. Lol!

So since shopping was out of the question I decided on a hair cut. Half my peops voted for long and the rest went with short. I struggled with the decision for days. Long, short, trim, cut???? What to do? I mean a haircut is a big deal. Life changing! Well for me anyways, I only get about 2 a year. So about ten minutes before my appointment, I decided I was going to go short. Why not? It's hair, it grows.Right?

So I did it. Jason chopped it all and I watched as dark ringlets of hair tumbled to the ground...goodbye hair. I stared in the mirror and I thought boy, I sure hope that the 'after' is better than the 'before'.

Well, it turned out a little sassy and some people said it made me look younger (Thank you Lord!) and even though it was a tough decision and I wasn't sure if I would have to break out my wig for a few months (yes I own a wig), I did it!!!! And I thought, the new hair is definitely representative of some other changes I need to make. Change can be scary at first like some of the changes I am making in my life. I thought they would be awful and hard but now I can see that they possibly will work out for good.

God has a way of doing that for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. There's a promise that definitely makes the cut! :)
