#19 Nails

I don’t know if I was in a creative or manic mood when I spontaneously decided I needed to get my hands painted two different colors, but I thought that it was fun. Usually I prefer a very natural/nude pink when I get my nails done so this was abnormal. Every time I looked at my hands I got a little confused. This kind of made me want to take more risk with things that are not permanent that allow me to express myself. The next thing I want to do to push myself out of my comfort zone is cutting or dying my hair. I have always wanted to do this but am a little nervous that I won’t feel like myself. The most extreme thing I have done is going a light brunette color or shoulder length. I was so uncomfortable when I did this, but it reminded me that there are more important things in the world to focus on than physical appearance. It also pushed me to think about my mind and body and how my body is like a place that my sole lives in but it does not define who I am.
