Eyes, Ears

 

My cataract eye surgery has helped my hearing!  Oh, yes it has!  Let me explain: For some reason, I am losing hair on top of my head but growing hair in my nose and in my ears.  The only explanation that I can come up with is old age.  I lose hair where I don’t want to but grow hair where I don’t want to.  So, when I go to cardiac rehab, because of the extra hair in my ears, my earbuds fall out and I can’t hear my music.  But when I try to shave the hair in my ears, I can’t see because of my bifocal glasses.  When I turn my head to shave one ear, the opposite eye can’t see through the glasses.  And when I tip my head up to see out of the bifocals to shave my ear hair, my ear has moved (it is attached to my head, after all).  Very frustrating.  But with my cataract surgery, my eyes are improved, I don’t need to use glasses, and I can see the hair in my ear!  I can trim the hair out, and my earbuds stay in!  Eyes better; ears better.  Well, sort of … I can’t hear any better, but at least the earbuds stay in.  And for that, I am thankful.  As David said in I Chronicles 16:34, “O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.”
