Cutting off Thoughts

So, January 31st. This right here is going to be the first month's last post.

You know, lately I've been thinking a lot about how I'm blessed with so many incredible people around me. It's just crazy interesting to see how everybody's lives have developed throughout the years. Also I got to know a few new friends these days.

One of them is called Kristina, she's a friend of a friend, you know how it goes. And she just opened the doors to her very own hair salon. The last couple of days I went over to visit and lend a helping hand with whatever there was for me to do. And to see a plain gray room become a wonderfully furnished place where magic happens is super exciting. But even greater than that is, to see how a dream can very much become reality. Believe me, just amazing.

Today I woke up and thought about shaving my head. Sometimes I feel like cutting them all off, I'm sure everybody does every once in a while. Today is one of those days. And also, I wish that by doing so, I could get rid of all the stuff that is bothering and distracting me, the same way you would cut the hair. Just imagine.

I can almost hear the sound of the scissors, racing through the thick field of  hair on my head. One by one they would slowly fall down to the ground. Silently. And almost peacefully they would lie there and just be. Sure, the hair would grow back pretty soon, and so would the thoughts and concerns, but for a little while, there would be nothing.
