Have You Unveiled Your Purple Hyacinth This Week?
You know those little moments that unexpectedly brighten your day? The ones that stick with you, making you smile long after they happen? I had one of those recently, and it reminded me of the beauty in everyday interactions.
The other day at the office, we were catching up with a colleague who had just returned from leave. She looked absolutely radiant—relaxed, refreshed, and with a stunning new hairstyle.
Compliments filled the room as we admired her fresh look and asked about her time away. She happily shared how she had finally done things she had always wanted to do, including choosing her new hairstyle.
As I sat listening, a thought crossed my mind: I want to be complimented on my hair too! So, I jokingly interjected, “Me too!”
For a little context—my team still remembers the stir I caused when I dyed my hair blue. Yes, blue! Without any warning, I walked into the office rocking different shades of blue in my hair.
The reactions?
Priceless! Some colleagues were amazed, others intrigued, and a few were outright stunned. Strangers even stopped me on the street to admire or comment on my bold choice. It was a moment of self-expression that turned into an unexpected social experiment.
So that morning, as my colleague received her well-deserved compliments, I was delighted when another teammate turned to me and said, “Your hair always looks nice.” It was a simple statement, yet it meant something. We shared a laugh, a connection, and an appreciation for the versatility and creativity of hairstyles. It was a beautiful way to start the day.
That was my Unveil Your Purple Hyacinth Moment.
