Welcome and thanks for stopping by.  Brunette and Living has been created to share my life experiences, advice and creative juices that have been accumulated so far during my time on this planet.

Yes I’m a brunette and having a blonde mother all my life, who is vivacious, social and loved by all who cross her path, I’ve often wondered if my social inhibitions were due to my boring brown hair and boring brown eyes.

Contradictory to that, the friends I’ve made love me for who I am and my hair/eye colour had nothing to do with it. I’ve learnt that I am a different type of social than my mother whom I love deeply for all she is. I have learnt a lot about myself in the past 3 years and made peace with the parts that didn’t conform with my personal judgements of idealism.

Most of us do have something about ourselves that we wished were different whether its the way we look, our body parts or personality. Self acceptance is not always easy, for me its been a journey of time. I’ve been living 40 years on this earth, so its time to get with the program and live it.

I’ve finally found a beautiful shade of brunette (thanks to my wonderful hairdressers), that matches my personality. Brown eyes can be beautiful if not stunning, I love them on other people so why not love them on myself? Simple trick psychology…
