Another year older

I found a white hair! My first, in my eyebrow. I guess that seems like a funny thing to be excited about, but I look at it as welcoming the inevitable. It seems appropriate that, on this day that marks another year of my life past, I should find an outward manifestation of my increasing age.

Not much else out of the ordinary, other than the chocolate cake I've requested. I think that means that I'm rather content with my ordinary life.

happy birthday dear Shokufeh, may you have days like this all until the next one! Contented is such an underrated place to be :)

Hi Shokufeh - I wanted to wish you a HAPPY BIRTHDAY and I hope you eat lots of your chocolate cake accompanied by some delicious tea! I have found some of those white eyebrow hairs that you talk of, on my face over the last few years and it still surprises me every time I pluck one out. But I'm getting used to it. More things will inevitably turn grey as well as sag! And it's okay, right? :)

My first white hair was an eyelash. Now I have several others on more typical parts of my head to keep it company. Whatchya gonna do?

Happy Birthday! I found my first grey hair on my head this year & I have decided to stop looking. :)
