Beautiful Sacrifice

I had been planning to donate my hair to Locks of Love for about two months now. I planned to wait until after Africa - so that I could just throw my hair into ponytails while I was there. Thursday I panicked. I was second guessing myself, making excuses about why I should wait, and on and on. Then I talked to my mom yesterday morning, and she encouraged me with what my original intention was.

I knew it would be a sacrifice. I liked my long hair, but I had this stirring that some little girl with cancer somewhere was excited to get a new wig - and they needed my hair to finish it up. So, against my every selfish, vain, thought ... I did it!!!
