When I was born my hair was pretty much non-existent, almost bald really. My three siblings all had a head full of hair but not me. My kids were almost baldys and yet inherited my thick hair as they got older. Finally, it started coming in very thick and long. The thickness pulled my ringlets right out but I still find them after a shower when it’s wet. My daughter will sometimes stare at my unruly mess of locks and say:”why is your hair so…crazy?”
I must admit I had Warrior hair a few years in high school, heck it was the 80’s after all! I wasn’t trying to copy him, mine just did what it wanted and was hard to tame. That does sound familiar, doesn’t it? Some days I love this thick mass of hair I was given but some days I want to cut it real short which just isn’t me. I’ve had my hair super long like Dana’s but mine tends to go outward so I need it a little shorter! Wish I could have it like that again…. I am reminded of lots that happened to Warrior and how some events were great and then just the opposite. My emotions for him in some way parallel how I feel about my hair even though that sounds nutty! 😂
Hair has a way of growing back even after we chop tons of it off. He would leave, I’d get frustrated but then return stronger than ever. My stylist once told me that no matter how much she cuts off or thins out, my hair will always be thick with so much body. What used to be such a frustration for me at times has now become more manageable like my feelings for Warrior. He is always there and fan though I am it is different now, much easier to control. Guess my hair has become that way for me as well.
Just like I never knew my hair would be so different than my brother or sisters, I also never knew I would relate to Warrior and his wild ways years ago. Both seemed so out of control to me. I fought to manage my thoughts in order to bring a sense of “normalcy” in this life of mine.
Acceptance is easy when we are in control but very hard when we are not. My hair I’ve had ever since I was young and Warrior has become a part of that longevity too. I have learned to tame the untamable. Dana has said this about Warrior and yet it is true about him and my hair…. I know my wild warrior hair and Warrior himself will still be there no matter what I do.
~~~ My “funnies” are done for now, more emotion and spirit coming soon, stay tuned!!! 😇💪🏻🎢🙏🏻

Your hair really is unruly in that pic. However you have been able to tame your hair as well as your life. Good job👍
