Alright already

I will cut the hair. If it's that much of an issue, I will cut it.

Jordan said to me today, "Maybe it's not really that they don't like your hair, but maybe just how you act." This was after I explained to him that some people in our hall don't like my hair. Trouble is, I think he's right.

As I explained to an elder from our old hall, this hair is more than just a cool cut. It's an expression of personal style, it's representative of who I am. It's a part of my personality. Without it, I'm not me. That's why I've been so resistant to changing it.

I've been thinking, though, that maybe that's the whole problem. The bible talks about stripping off the old personality and putting on the new one. Murderers, rapists and thieves have all left their former lives and become Christians, despite their pasts, and that is who they were.

So, the real question here is... Is it time to end this David?
