Simple things

Yesterday I felt such a heaviness in both my spiritual and my physical life, that I sought relief in a bath full of bubbles.

Armed with a fresh blade in my Trac II razor, I practically attacked the dense growth of hair that had begun to darken both of my legs, all ten of my toes, as well as my two delicate arm pits.

Defenseless against the onslaught of my unparalleled will and Gillette's two thin strips of sharpened steel, tufts of hair slipped away into the hot, bubbly, lavender scented tub water.

When I finally rose from that bubble depleted, hair infested water, I arose a new woman! I literally felt lighter.

Yesterday I sought a renewal of sorts...

...and I found it in a tub full of bubbles, a freshly sharpened razor, and one tiny act of self care.
