(as we talked about before) and i think that is a thought we need to reject. for that reason, i am glad you went and cut your hair and did what YOU wanted to do. often times, the reason i want to keep my hair short is because i will see an adorable girl with short hair! anyways, i could keep going on and on and write a book about my thoughts on this post, but in a nutshell, i believe that the things you shared are true. femininity is not an exterior thing, but an interior thing. i truly believe that with all of my heart. i know some women who might be beautiful on the outside, but ethere is nothing truly feminine that exudes from them. i would rather have true femininity pouring out of my being than out of my make-up and outfits and hair. and honestly, as time passes, i have seen you become more and more girly and i hope you embrace those parts of WHO YOU ARE, not what you look like.<br /><br />p.s. i used to think you looked so cute with your blonde panels and monroe piercings and band t-shirts and vans. just saying :)charla bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02897087109849801493noreply@blogger.com
