I shaved my beard. Theres no photographic evidence to support this just yet and Im not sure I'm going to take a photo just to prove it but its true.
Up until a few hours ago - I had a wooly face. I'd grown and cultivated my beard for 5 or 6 months and was getting rather tired of it. It had become slightly unruly despite my somewhat regular grooming and I had been mulling over shaving it off for a good month or so.
Its funny though - even once I made my mind up to shave it - I really almost had to force myself to do it. This made me think about change and really how open to change we might be. I force change on myself regularly and yet I find some change much harder than others. Perhaps the beard situation just serves as a reminder that sometime to just have to jump on in and make change (or let it happen).
Heres me in bearded times with a link to a few other places you can find me online.
Theres been enormous change around the world in the last few years - and I find myself thinking, reading and observing this change waiting to find out what it all means and how it will impact me.
Hold on a second! waiting? why would I do that? There are things that I hold dear (hence the name of this blog) and my responsibility to those things is to make sense of change, adapt, find the positives and jump in boots and all. After all - I like change right?
