“I missed a waxing appointment and when my mum asked me why I simply said, ‘I think I’m just going to keep it.’ She was worried but she knew it was my decision. I spent the whole six-week summer holiday preparing myself and by the time I went back to start sixth form, I had a full beard.”

My own bearded lady story

In 1995, Saint Charles Nelson Chuckles and I spent a week in London, which is one of my favourite places to spend a week or so in. While on the Tube/London Underground I saw a bearded lady in tears making out with a man that was trying to console her by kissing her. She made a significant physical impression on me. 

After our good week in London we kept the tour going and ended up in Birmingham, which at the time, at least, was the second most populated metropolitan area in Britain. Chuckles and I were in our hotel rooms and he was shaving while I was watching television. There was a show featuring the Edinburgh International Festival which we viewed personally later in the trip. Chucky was stating that if he did not shave he would look (paraphrased) noticeable, and I stated that he would not look as (paraphrased) noticeable as that bearded lady. At that point I looked at the television and within a few moments that bearded lady was introduced as a presenter at the Edinburgh International Festival. Bizarre! 

The theological lessons? 

Pray that one is ready for the unexpected. It is one lesson, anyway.

I certainly am absolutely, not on here to be negative about someone that has had it tough in life. But, as a person that has struggled with some physical issues in life, and is now more so on the up, in general, my thoughts on this type of issue can be found in the recent link below:
