Perhaps the biggest thing I did today was take the hair that we cut off in November out of the envelope. I looked at it, and touched it. It is soft and silky, and I truly did love the blondeness of it, and I saw no reason to keep it, to hold onto what was. I am not my hair. I tossed the strands off the deck for the birds, and even though it has been separated from my head for almost a year, and even, though my understanding is that hair is not alive, it seemed alive. It seemed so alive, and so am I.
