Ok...I know that I haven't written in awhile and I did that on purpose. I didn't want to hit you with the same thing every week. However, this past week was a tad bit interesting. Here's the story...
Since I cut my hair, I've been receiving numerous compliments. This experience started that way but ended a little different. I was celebrating my best friend's birthday at this club Friday night. I was standing near my friend when a girl walked up to me. She came to give me a compliment on my hair. Here's the convo...
Her: I just wanted to say that I love your hair. It looks so nice on you.
Me: Thanks girl!!! I appreciate that!!!
Her: I can appreciate women like you that cut your hair. I have alopecia so I wear these wigs. I always said that I'd take them off once I turn 30.
Me: Awwww sweetie (I give her a hug)...well how old are you???
Her: I'm 25.
Me: Girl take that wig off!!!
Her: Awwww you're gonna make me cry!!!
Me: I'm serious!!! I always felt like I needed weave but cutting this hair has been one of the best decisions that I've ever made. Do it girl!!!
Her: Omg you've been such a blessing you just don't know. You're beautiful!!!
And we proceeded to go from there. A few hugs and number exchanges later, I made a new friend. I regret that I didn't take a pic of us but oh well... It warmed my heart to know that I actually touched her heart and she touched mine too.
You never know how your decisions can inspire and motivate others. Be mindful of what you do because we ALL have the ability to influence. TTYL!!!
