The first time ever…

May 4, 2008

…I saw gray hair down there e I shrieked. Muted and lady-like of course.

Joke laang. Taken aback siempre. Pulled it out but more came to the funeral. For a time I was just resigned. Now it doesn’t mean a thing.  Same for head hair. When the supply of melanin slowly failed, I was totally dismayed.  I felt I was handed a notice informing me of my remaining time.  And I didn’t have enough time to do the things I always liked to do, expected to, or even plan to. Then I was in denial (I dyed). Now, it just is.  I’m nearing stage IV - quite soon, all white na ako. Even on those days!

I’ve reached a milestone of sorts: even if they were less than welcome in the beginning, I’m now cool with my gray hairs.  But the whole aging thing is still a work in progress for me
