“Life is what you do after your barber cuts your hair"

 

We all get our hair cut. Some, multiple times a year, some every few years. In any event, hair will be trimmed, beards will be shaped, and moustaches will be shorn. The truth is, as long as we are healthy, our hair grows. It isn’t until we are dead, and even then! Our hair continues to grow! Astonishing, I know.

So with Life, we cannot keep it freeze-framed in Time. It will continue, day by day, eating away deliciously at our very Existence. Literally. Our years go down the drain, like the daily medications that go down our throats! All with little or no impact, depending on the various conditions of daily life, like what sign the moon is in, or if the crickets are chirping extra vigilantly. More or less irrelevant, but necessary all the same!

Life helps you, up to a certain spot. Like the hairdresser or barber. You ask for just a trim. Then afterwards, after thanking them profusely, you actually realize you could have done more of a change than you thought. Did the hairdresser do a great, job? The best I’ve SEEN! It was that Eleanor had just realized she was ready to Re-Invent her life! And she had to speak it into existence. So, she went home grabbed her rough kitchen shears from the drawer and pulled herself up close to the mirror to inspect the situation. *Snip* *Zip* *Dip*. Checks mirror*. *Snip* *Zip* *Dip*. It was done, more inches than she thought she’d ever cut! First, dejectedly, “Woops” …. Then finally… "Wahoo!”

The guidepost for today is simple:

"Life is what you do after your barber cuts you hair." 

It isn't enough to just accept what other people/society does for us. We have to take ownership of ourselves. That means even if our parents or teachers did everything they could for us (or nothing) it is almost irrelevant (though we are very grateful) (or not!) 

At the end of the day: F**kin DO SOMETHING WITH YOUR LIFE. DON’T JUST SIT THERE LIKE AN EGG AFRIAD TO BE CRACKED. You are here to make a change. IN ORDER FOR THE EGG TO FULFILL ITS PURPOSE IN LIFE, IT IS EITHER TO HATCH OR MAKE ROOM FOR A DIFFERENT SORT OF CONTRIBUTION. (Alright, I’m not yelling anymore), YES, I AM, YOU HAVE TO MAKE A CHANGE IN YOUR LIFE OR YOU WILL NEVER HAVE THE LIFE YOU’VE ALWAYS WANTED! GiRL!!!***

We each have more potential than we can even imagine!

Just TRY is all we are saying over here on Chanel 9 News, just try. Be like the hero or heroine in your favorite Disney movie, action hero film, or cartoon. Be Sailor Moon, or Belle or Barbie even! If it means you are your true Fulfilled Self! Don’t be Afraid** to Shine. What a silly notion! Afraid to Shine.

 Silly, Am I right?
