Eucharist [thanksgiving] is the state of the perfect man. Eucharist is the life of paradise. Eucharist is the only full and real response of man to God's creation, redemption, and gift of heaven. - Alexander Schemann
Oh my....isn't that a delicate liqueur you have there.
Let me know when you want to step on up to the mans section.
I seem to go in phases. I was big into single malts for a while, then Canadian whiskeys. I've developed a sweet tooth in my advanced decrepitude, lately it's been Drambuie or Apricot flavored brandy.
I have never suffered from hair loss. I am 35 and still have as much hair on my head as I did in high school. I've also never had a single gray hair.
I've never suffered from hair loss. Even with hairs coming out when I have long hair they always grow back. But I've had some gray hairs since my 20s. I'm 32 now. It doesn't bother me. In fact, the fact that my hairline hasn't even receded [the doc told me it should have started at 16] means that I really don't have to care what color my hair is, because I have a full head, which is really the issue.
My best friend seemed to lose most of his hair overnight when he was 21. He made fun of me for having gray hairs once. He only did it once as I responded, "At least I have hair."
I've had a beard and mustache for forty years. Beard grows in a natural gotee, not much hair on the cheeks. It's all gray. Got a full head of gray hair. My only complaint is that some of th' hair that's tryin' to reach up to the top of my head gets tired and pokes outa' my nose and ears instead. It's very annoying when it tickles my nose and so, I find myself periodically plucking it. That hurts and makes me sneeze, too, but it ends the tickling which is worse to me than the pain I must endure. Sometimes, I actually relish the pain. It's become sorta' like a feeling of revenge on those annoying little nose weeds.
I find that the ear hairs can really hang on. You can't pull them out unless you've got a really good grip on 'em, like gettin' 'em between a thumbnail and index finger and even then they sometimes slip through and it still hurts anyway. You youngsters have a lot to look forward to. Things you never imagined.
Anyway, when one has a heavenly perspective, it's nice to know that this ain't all there is to it.
This cracked me up. I always wondered about old man ear hairs. It's comforting to think that God can use aging to humble us. Might as well embrace it in that sense I figure.

To my mind it is wholly irresponsible to go into the world incapable of preventing violence, injury, crime, and death. How feeble is the mindset to accept defenselessness. How unnatural. How cheap. How cowardly. How pathetic.

I used to inspect my husband for errant hairs! The bushy eyebrows, ear hairs and scraggly neck hairs came under my regular ministrations. He had to deal with the nasal tufts himself!
