I went for my haircut this morning. It's Saturday, it's the only free time that I have. It's quite rushed as again I need to pick up Dave at 11 from his school. Durind the weekdays, I have classes, I usually pick him at at 12 something after my class, so I always do my best to be at school early on Saturday.
Back to the topic, I went to this saloon, there were already a couple of people inside, but luckily they were not having their hair cut. I were the first so I can just pick Dave on time. However, while I were waiting for the hair-dresser to come down, an old granny walked in the saloon with one maid and one grand-daughter (13 or 14 years old). She's quite old, I guess in her 80s. Her hearing is not that good, and she's very impatient, looked blur... She needs to her hair cut done also.
It's quite a dilemma for me, if I let her had the hair cut first, then I will be so late in picking up Dave. If I had mine first, then that poor granny has to stay there for quite a while... Finally, after half an hour, the hair-dresser just came down... and he's extremely slow in doing things... (it's my first visit)
Finally, the hair-dresser cut the granny hair first, and he couldn't cut the hair as the granny keep moving his head. Then the granddaughter like keep saying... granny, do you want your hair cut done, so that you can look prettier... The granny wanted to cut her hair also, as she said like, Yes... a little... However, the granny can't stop moving her head around.. So, again and again, the grand daughter said, Granny, please stop moving your head around.. or granny the hair-dresser is going to cut your hair, but you cannot move... or granny.. please stop moving, we are done in few minutes.. then you are going to look beautiful...
Seeing this granny reflects me to think of my own granny... She were sick for couple of months and she's like in her early 70s... so suffered for a couple of months... Meanwhile, dad suddenly passed away (heart attack) during the Christmas trip... Feel no pain at all... These whole things make me think if I really have a choice to choose how long I can live on this earth... I really will not request to live longer like hundred years... if were not healthy... ^^
Maybe I will choose to live like as long as I am still healthy and able to do things... not a burden for other people.. Hm.. not sure also... ^^
