That Giving State of Mind

So a recent development...I'm now bald. By choice mind you, and for a good cause. I had been planning to do it for a long time and finally actually did it. I'm happy to say that I collected well over $500 for the Alberta Cancer Foundation, I mean sure it may not seem like that much money but every bit counts I figure.

It's been 5 years since I've had short hair, I'm not really used to it. I feel cold all the time now and I think it looks a little weird. Many people that have only known me with long hair don't recognize me at first but many are saying that it suits me. I don't know if I'll keep it like this, I did like my long hair but I'm also torn to keep it short for a more professional look. I guess I can wait, I mean it's only hair and for now it'll always keep growing.

Why did I do it though? I felt I needed to, I like to help people where I can and while I don't believe in a higher power I just do these types of things because it makes me feel good. I don't understand how people can go through life being selfish all the time. These people have no idea the feeling of accomplishment you get from donating time to a cause. So many people are caught up in themselves that they give no time to others. I guess I get kinda preachy about this but it's something I deem important.
