Yesterday and today have been really hard emotionally for me. For the simple fact that I am bald. I know that sounds weird, but it's hard. I never knew how much I hid behind my hair, as though it was my security blanket. So, when I sat in the chair yesterday while a friend buzzed my hair off I knew there was no turning back. I was okay up until the point when I saw my bangs fall to the ground....

I know a family that were once proclaiming to be a Christian Family and are now self proclaiming Jews.

Did you know that 67,000 women die from illegal abortions each year? Also, did you know that Switzerland has the lowest abortion rate in the world, and yet abortion is completely legal over there.... Why? I'll go into that later.

The phone rings, and on the other line is a unrecognizable scratchy, weak voice. "Jennifer, I just wanted to let you know Adrianne's dad was killed at work today." I didn't know how to respond. First death is my grandmothers, now a man who I've known for At least 4 years. A father, a husband, a friend, a church member, a drummer, and a mentor.

If I tell You... You will not believe me... but I will tell you anyways.

Dear Friend... You knew everything about me, and I knew you too. Did you know that I held nothing back?  You were the only one who I was comfortable enough to talk to. How you did it? I don't know.

What makes a Father? What about a mother?!?! Is it DNA? Or the Nurturing. Well, I, myself, would have to say that DNA does not make anybody a parent. It's being there for your child, in any way possible, may it be emotional support, Financial support, or just being to listen.
