Learning to blow dry my hair…

May 11, 2008

Blow drying my hair is something I never do, it seems to take so much time and with my hair being straight it generally follows the principle of “Get out of bed and go” principle. This is not to say I haven’t tried in the past, though it’s always alone and when no one is looking because the reflection in the mirror often resembles that of a monkey trying to reach for a banana in the tree only to fall out of the tree like this …

When I look in that mirror, brush in one hand, the hair dryer in the other and try to get my hands to work as they should it all goes haywire to the extreme. Learning to look in the mirror and know how to work with the reflection takes time, patience and the willingness to learn.

In life there are many such mirrors, we often write them off because we plain and simply do not have time to waste on them, we are rushing from one thing to the next, always on the go. The reflection of ourselves or the opposite of ourselves (which ever perspective you would like to use) can irritate us and drive us crazy, our patience levels are tested and often we will just throw the brush down, switch off the plug and say good riddance.

Only problem is that no matter what we do, no matter how hard we try and run from the mirrors in our lives they will always be there. Perhaps it is better to stand there and learn how to deal with these opposites, learn how to work the situation, how to move and have patience. Life would then be easier, your hair wouldn’t get all in a tizz nor would it stand out in all the directions you were trying to avoid. Life would be simpler if we embraced the opposites, tried to understand them and work with them.

Not one person is the exact same as the next, embrace the mirror and learn how to blow dry your hair…

Embrace the differences for it means you aren’t a clone!

POST NOTE: No I am not like the monkey in the video but I thought I’d try and get you falling off your chair with laughter ;-)
