Inspired

Last night I randomly decided to watch Bryant Gumble's sports thingy on HBO. Yes, pretty sure that's the actual name of the show. (Probably not.) It was a segment about the domestic violence rate within the MMA. They interviewed Christy Mack who was beaten by her ex and sporting a bald head. And the reason she gave for being bald, it signified a rebirth. 

Well, isn't that a lovely way to think about chemo and going bald!?

I have never watched Bryant Gumble's sports thingy. I have never watched more than 30 seconds of a MMA fight. I have never heard of Christy Mack and something called a War Machine. A quick Google search and I learned she's apparently a porn star. The ex hacked her hair during the attack. She shaved the rest. And she too struggled with her new look, "It's hard to look in the mirror every day and see someone you don't know." 

My goodness! I'm always fascinated by how and whom God speaks through. So many would ignore her simply because of her occupation, but I deeply thank her. I have struggled with my hair loss. I needed desperately to rethink my situation. I needed hear those words. From a porn star beautiful human being. 

So here I am

Fighting

Proud 

Strong

Being reborn

And I know one day

me and this bald head

will feel beautiful again
