It seems our troll wants it both ways. First, he wants to do away with your desires, then cries when others don't want to be party to his desires. Gee, I didn't receive the memo proclaiming this to be his domain.
Karen Marie, it's great to see you here!
And Uzma, your poetic waxings are wonderfully well-composed. A rose for your yeoman's efforts.

I do feel sorry for the Warty one. It must be so lonely living in a pond full of bits of hair and rusty old scissors. No wonder s/he jumped out and sought out this fair long hair paradise.

To be honest Jennifer, I don't think I would. I have been interested in seeing how i'd look with short hair, and I've played around with the sites where you add your pic and change it a bit. That was fun and all, but I just like my longer hair!!!
Well I know I like my hair better long. Ive not had it short since i was younger and Im sure I would look cute enough. However I love the way my hair feels on my shoulders neck and back. Plus i remember always wanting long hair and admireing it on others. When I was little I would draw princesses and mermaids and regular girls all of whom would have never ending hair. Not just long but swirling over and over around the paper long. Endless.
Plus it makes me feel like a princess or mermaid. Or a rennassaince maiden. Ever notice how many of the very long haired gals are into Renn faires and SCA? Even as a bellydancer I love haveing long hair.
So id like to see myself in all kinds of hair styles just like I woul love to see myself in every style of dress imaginable but in the end my true self has long hair...and flowing skirts and dresses...

My true self is also a Rapunzelian maiden in soft, flowing clothes. Kind of hard to express that when you are also supposed to be a fast-talking hard-headed corporate bod. I save my trad feminine attire for evenings and weekends, likewise the hair is bound up during the day.
For those who believe in the “Realm”: All the faeries I’ve met have long hair, even the goblins and hobgoblins, males and females. Funnily enough, the pixies don’t have pixie-cuts. But that’s yet another example of children’s book illustrators imagining these beings rather than taking the time to search them out and draw them first hand. Laziness.
SCA? Is that the Society for Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists, the Scottish Canoe Association, the Society for Creative Anachronism…?
There is no "knowledge" of the Realm contained in books or can be described by the obscure shadows that are words. There is only the knowing of it through certain means and through the generosity of the Universe.
If you seek the Realm then abandon all expectation and all imagination. In silence and stillness....watch...truly watch.
The play of the wind, the light on the waves, the points where trees meet the earth, the hunger of wild beasts, the hummingbirds' spinning, a single strand of your hair releasing from your head and floating through continents ....watch and wait for what will reveal itself.
One day, when you are ready, a gateway will appear, and you may enter.
Watching and waiting doesnt seem to work for me. Yearning or hoping is useless energy spent.
I can watch in silence or enjoy being a part of the wind, the earth, the water. But I can not hope or desire or attempt to seek.
In general, wanting something, to see or know or become a part of, is just painful. Its better to not hope or longingly wish for. Be it for something only a privilaged few are granted or for something that is offered to many.
So its better for me not to even think of such things let alone hope, or watch for.
And for that matter, why should I have to learn everything on my own? Never a guide or teacher? Especialy when I see the harmful person calling herself shamen and learning from someone who truely is yet she pulls whomever she can down with her.
But I am getting off subject.
I just dont know that I could entertain the thought to hope.
