I haven't put any wild color in my hair lately, but last summer I took trains from Reno, NV, to Brunswick, ME, and back, and before I left a friend hooked some feathers into my hair - a very pretty beige-and-brown striped, a black, and a BRIGHT turqoise. Aside from how much fun it was knowing they were there, I really got a kick out of people's reactions. Some squealed with delight, some tried to appear not to be staring.... So Beth, I get the green/purple/pink hair! And I agree, we need basic routines to ground us, but without occasional change, being grounded becomes being buried.

Sounds like you have a slew of new things to try, too.

C...I laughed at your reference to dying hair green. Changing her hair color every few months is how my daughter creates change in her life (though she has yet to try green). I think we need a mix of comforting routines and inspiring change in our lives. Those routines give us a grounding and feeling of safety, from which we can spring to life when change comes our way.Beth Groundwaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13999372882748655834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529128955266044151.post-656492560420110582012-05-02T08:53:39.866-04:002012-05-02T08:53:39.866-04:00Right, Robin!
