“OVER – 100 year old PHOTO”
When you are looking at this PHOTO of a very young little “Miss Marie Brady” – – what would “YOU” … think of as a good nick-name … something that would be… just for her?
“This is little Miss…”Cotton-TOP” – – as a baby she had the whitest of blonde hair – – she had told me – – that you would have ever seen. Then as she grew older – – a little more “yellow-blonde” – – and into her teen years – – more “BLONDE” – – and very little of the whiteness – – until she finally had… a very good shade of brown with some red highlights.
So…I received regular brown hair… my brother, DENNY had the best shade of the “IRISH ” RED hair – – everyone would remark as to how beautiful his hair was. Then my brother, Tommy – – with the luck of IRISH – – started out with the best shade of BLONDE hair and and has kept it in to his senior years. My sister “EVE Karen” also the surviving TWIN – – had the best of the golden-brown hair – – and she sometimes would dye it black – – why – – she likes black hair – – and for a good number of years.
The only reason for this color of hair – – is for the reverse process of LIFE – – when it comes to the color of hair. Usually we all start out with what ever color we will have… for most of the years of our LIFE. BUT… in the case of my MOTHER – – she started out the opposite of most people – – she started out with the white hair color and as she grew older – – it gradually darken to a dark brown – – no white and then grey hair in her seventies and until she passed away.
In this FAMILY – – would that be – – that she was the thirteenth child in the Family – – or maybe they did not have the vitamins that are needed . “Anemia” is the one condition that I know she had – – and was most probably the reason for a lot of her health conditions – – but way back then – – the real value of VITAMINS – – just was not in the list of what the Doctors carried in their bag.
So… my final thought refers me back to the BIBLE – – Psalms 139 – – if and whenever in doubt about LIFE – – a reminder to be grateful and so very THANKFUL – – that we have a CREATOR… WHO has the master plan to ALL of our LIVES – – and looking back and then forward again – – what do I think – that I know – – nothing worth a second thought and that – – – Almighty Yahweh has everything in HIS hands – – and knows just exactly what HE is doing – – and from where – – I am sitting – – He is doing a much better job at HIS work – – than any of us – – mere mortals… HIS creations… could ever give a second thought – – to maybe only making a complete mess of things.
“Everything HE has done … and everything that HE will be doing – – is exactly correct – – and only if you want me to help YOU, Almighty Yahweh – – let me know – – as I am a very old person – – but… always ready to help – – where ever needed.” D.V.
