#31: HERE COMES THE SUN!

#31 THE IMPORTANCE OF THE SUN!

I stumbled on the Beatles’ “Here Comes the Sun” while watching vloggers on YouTube—Nina Simone’s version of the song is out of this world! A few months ago, my mother bought me a mirror that looks like the sun and I put it over my bed. This “sunny” mirror reminded me of my hair: the round shape was my face and my hair, the rays of the sun. The sun has always been a thing that has made me happy in my life. It’s ever-present grace and benevolence sits high in the sky, the warmth and light making a way, rising daily and without fail. My hair teaches me to never take the rising and the setting of the sun for granted. Every day is a new day and a new chance to start again. The sun makes me feel hopeful. I love the sun!

*Every day starting February 24th at 11:11AM EST (it is said that the angels sing at this time!) until April 10 I will count down the remaining days of our 'A Call to HAIRiette ARMS' rocket hub.com fundraising campaign. We're raising funds to create an interactive series --with YOU!-- and a haircare line (a portion of which goes to charity, THE ACTOR'S FUND).

We'll share one essay from my upcoming book I FOUND GOD IN MY HAIR: 98 spiritual principles I learned from my relationship with…my hair! (via twitter: @tanyaTTwright, @HAIRietteharlem). As with all things that give you struggle, my hair has taught me a lot about life, love…and FAITH. It is my hope you will find inspiration in these essays to apply to your own life.
