We've been there. Each of us. We get up, and no matter what we do, our hair just doesn't cooperate.

It doesn't matter if you have a full head of hair, thinning hair, or no hair.

Why? Because a bad hair day really isn't about our hair. It's just about how sometimes the day doesn't begin the way we want it to. And when it doesn't, so often the rest of the day follows as though it's a self fulling prophesy.

But it doesn't have to. King Solomon reminded us, “This too shall pass.”

So whether it's our hair or our mood or our anxiety or our weight or our energy… These things are real, and they shouldn't be ignored. But just wait… Because in a moment in time, things will change.

With love and shalom,

Rabbi Zach Shapiro
