I was asked a few times today why I was shaving my head.
Well for starters, the campaign for Leukemia & Blood Cancer NZ’s annual Shave For A Cure started today. That’s when people offer their heads (or beards) to the cause to raise money for the 6 Kiwi’s diagnosed daily with blood cancer or a related condition. They do not receive any Government funding, so every cent counts toward ensuring their support continues.
And secondly, it’s easy to help, right?
As I waited for my turn to lose my “locks”, I was interviewed by a few different outlets and that was my answer to why I’m doing it. Sure, it was Hilary Barry who made a statement for it:

What’s stopping us from doing something great?
So that’s what I did it for; because she asked and I thought “Sure!”.
With my ageless beard in tow, I weave it through my hands and ponder on such a thing, ensuring to be mindful of accomplishing and following such thinking; Because here I am 7 days later, my goal completed (and then some) for an amazing cause, and a fun journey today to share with you all as I Shave For A Cure:
