“I like to be a free spirit. Some don’t like that, but that’s the way I am.” – Princess Diana
“To be true to myself, to be the person that was on the inside of me, and not play games. That’s what I’m trying to do mostly in whole world…” – Janice Joplin
Last week, I went to get my hair cut and colored. After almost a month of things in my life spiraling beyond my control, this was something I could actually change. My hair. Just my hair.
I called Sarah Mae on my way to the appointment to tell her my hair plans and shared my heart about something the Lord has been teaching me for about 6 months now. She condensed our conversation down really well in a video she posted on her blog HERE the other day.
I’m not a stranger to chunky highlights or a little funky color, but I tell you what, my hairdresser would not do what I wanted her to do last week. She knew I’ve been in sort of a crisis lately, and she didn’t want me to do something I’d regret. I get it, I really do…but once in awhile, we really do just want to let go of the constraints holding us back don’t we? Crisis or not.

Did the comments get turned off on your allume post? I read it and was so excited by what you wrote that I had to comment! ;o) There is so much in the post that my head cannot keep straight all that I want to say but I love the truth that you are sharing! Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom. More of Him = more freedom =more of a free spirit.
