the sorry truth

Here's the sorry truth.

I'm afraid I won't be pretty if I cut off my hair.

(Ooh, it looks bad when I say it out there in the open.)

But here's a fact:

I'm going to cut it anyway.

Maybe it won't make me any stronger.

But maybe it's a needed change.

(This is stupid. I know it. You know it. Vanity, the whole ordeal. It's just hair.)

I'm not sure why I felt I needed to say this so badly. 

But here it is.
