I'm in the zone of late 20s, and i never thought it was common to have grey hair this early. Flower. My mother calls it a flower. I never asked why, but my understanding is that maybe it's because people have the urge to pluck them. And when i was a kid, i always played the gardener; plucking her flowers. 

I was brushing my hair at the time. Suddenly there's an odd shiny strand on my head standing out like a rare Pokemon after a long walk. It's a fascinating feeling. It felt as if it had been screaming to be noticed for a long time, but i never realized. Plus, it is right on the center hairline. A kind of attention seeker, i believe.

Yo, i'm old. As if back pain wasn't enough, and now this? Grandma.

Honestly, i think it's a new flex. Something that's very natural happened as we all age, and i got to experience it in my late 20s. Well, that's early to be slapped with another OLD-fact, but duh, my sister had hers earlier. But when it comes to her, there's no doubt. She looks stressed since young lol.

I read some articles regarding this matter. One particularly interesting fact is that it is possible for the gray hair to regain its original colour if the cause is stress or certain medical conditions. So i guess this is better than balding. Whoops.

But i'm not thinking of plucking this silver flower. Removing it won't stop time either. I'll just consider my hair ran out of ink and that's okay. Grey hair doesn't mean the end of youth or anything. Life is still worth living. In a way, it’s like getting flowers for living. Woo ain’t that a beautiful expression?

But somehow, looking at my parents’ flowers makes me a bit sad. A bit. Yeah.

If anything, this adds to my story. And truly, every stage of life has its own beauty.
