The other day I was with a group of women and the conversation was about greying hair and what to do if you’re starting to get grey hair (ie. hide it)… And this post is not about judgement (I am all for honouring each to their own), but it is about awareness.
It made me think about how we are afraid of greying hair and wrinkles and getting older (ie. changing), because of the patriarchal conditioning of how women should look and be…
Yet while worrying about this we also forget the colour of life. And the present moment.
And our true selves!
What if we are actually getting more colourful as we age? Because I feel we do. We become wiser and stiller and our energy change. And this is beauty to me.
I’m afraid of a grey life – which for me is a life without change and transformation.
I’m afraid of a grey life which is forgetting who I truly am!
A grey life is repeating the same patterns and staying stuck, not learning from our past or mistakes and repeating loops.
A grey life is living a life someone else wants you to live – women do this the most!
But really working on changing and transforming and getting to know yourself and actually living that makes your life super colourful – not a grey (dull) moment!
What if you leave your hair to become grey and your laughing wrinkles to show (I also mean this metaphorically) and become just your true self, instead of what the world ‘wants you to be’ – how would that life be?
This is only for you to answer – but I can tell you, removing layers of conditioning like how you should look or how you should be in this world, is beautifully colourful and expansive. You won’t mind your hair getting grey.
