The day to cut my 2-year-long hair has finally come! My locks (hair) had grown to my “BEHIND” (another way to say buttocks, butt, okolele). I could have passed for quite the hula dancer!
It had been a long 2 years since deciding to donate my hair to a wig-making charity. I was getting many compliments and was actually growing quite fond of having long hair, even though it was getting harder and harder to keep clean! When the moment came to snip, snip (!) however … the transformation was instant!
I have been learning French with a private teacher now, for about the same amount of time, 2 years. I still struggle to make conversation with my teacher and often feel that I have not improved at all. I had been telling myself that simply continuing was better than quitting!
But, YESTERDAY!  I took a little FRENCH quiz for fun and was SHOCKED and DELIGHTED that I knew MUCH more that I thought! I had been IMPROVING and getting BETTER without feeling the GROWTH. Isn’t this how life often works?
We ARE growing… we just don’t feel it everyday. That makes sense! C’est vrai!
フランス語が上手くなってきている事に乾杯!いいドネーションができるまでしっかりと待った事に乾杯!
Yay for having gotten better at French! Yay for waiting long enough to make a decent hair donation!
素敵な職人さんの手にかかりますように。I hope a great wig craftsperson can create a beautiful wig for someone!
