The Attitude of Three Hairs
===========================

There was once a woman who woke up one morning, looked in the
mirror and noticed she had only three hairs on her head.

"Well," she said, "I think I'll braid my hair today," so she did
and she had a wonderful day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and saw she had
only two hairs on her head.

"HMM," she said, "I think I'll part my hair down the middle
today," and she did and she had a grand day.

The next morning she woke up, looked in the mirror and saw she
had only one hair left on her head.

"Well," she said, "Today I'm going to wear my hair in a pony
tail." So she did and it was a fun, fun day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that
there wasn't a single hair on her head.

"YEAH!" she exclaimed, "I don't have to fix my hair today!"

Remember you may not be able to control what someone says or
does or some of the situations that life throws you, but you can
sure control the way you react.

Jadapit,

Great post! We can ALL learn something by it, including me! :D

When my daughter was going through Chemotherapy, she woke up one day to find a clump of her hair on her pillow. Rather than get all upset over it (she had beautiful, long THICK curly hair) she said "screw it" and had it all shaved off. I did the same so she wouldn't look any different.

When life hands you lemons, you make whiskey sours!! :p
