7 years, a haircut and starting again

My life changed yesterday. I felt it with every fibre of my being…yesterday.

Today my life is starting anew. I know it with every cell in my being…Today.

Sitting on the deck for my usual contemplation and conversation with my guides and Seth this morning, eating toast and honey and sipping on hot coffee the pieces came together.

The pieces of my life in the past 7 years (exactly) and the significance of a little haircut I had yesterday.

This is me, with new haircut (blowing you a kiss). I was compelled yesterday to get my hair cut. I had an appointment at a local salon that I had been to before. I picked up a coffee on my way in and then sat in the salon watching the goings-on of the 2 staff members that were there, neither of whom I had seen before. When one of them approached me and proceeded to play with my hair and tell me what she would do I became apprehensive and the messages I was getting were ‘get out of here, go to your other shopping centre’ and so I thanked the girl and left, leaving her completely flabbergasted I’m sure.

As instructed I then proceeded to my other shopping centre and approached 2 salons both of which could not fit me in but I knew, somehow I knew that I had to get my hair done NOW!

Long story short, I found a salon and an incredible hairdresser who charged me exactly half of what the original hairdresser had quoted me and she did my hair exactly as I had imagined it and that’s not even the exciting bit.

Sitting on the deck, I was overcome with a feeling that yesterday was the last day of my life, and today was the first day of my life…a life in which I get to choose exactly how it turns out.

I began seeing images of that last day that I finally told my ex-husband that I was leaving, I began seeing flashes of my last relationship and it occurred to me that it and my marriage both ended this month, the marriage 7 years ago and the relationship 1 year ago.

My mind took me back to bits and pieces of my life over the past 7 years, which by the way, is exactly how many years I have been growing my hair from it’s formerly always short style into what it had become by yesterday morning.

Yesterday I had a feeling that I had used my longer hair as a place to hide as I did some growing and stretching and started taking little steps into a new way of BEing.

Today I feel full of new life, I feel ready to start BEing who I really am. No more hiding, no more pretending to be less than. No more.

There is a sense of renewal about today.

There is a sense of time changing.

Are you ready to stop hiding behind your ‘hair’? What will you do today as you take your first steps into the rest of your life?
