Today in church, an older man (I think
that means he is older than I am old.) tapped me on the shoulder and said, “You
have beautiful hair. I have been sitting here looking at it and I enjoyed that
so much.”
I was totally unaware that such a
thing could be. I told him, “It comes from God and the humidity.”
Now I suspect I should have added that
a good cut helps too. I too have thought my hair looked especially nice, as it
seems that the humidity was doing a good job getting the curls right.
I was personally expecting a
compliment on the dress that I was wearing, because I thought it looked rather
nice, but no one said a word about it. Just shows that I do not have a clue
what is going on in the mind of anyone.
Could hair get better with age? I do
not feel the same about my face. In fact, when a friend commented that she did
not like doing phone calls that involved video because she noticed a fresh crop
of wrinkles, I laughed. I have noticed the name things, but never told anyone.
Perhaps it is holding the phone so close to the face, causing too much of a
glimpse of the landscape. Because of family we still do these video calls, but I
try not to look at me so much and look at the other person more.
