About Me
"While the rest of the species is descended from apes, redheads are descended from cats." MARK TWAIN .From pillar to post and coast to coast, the auburn word is on the lips of the many.
Red splintering through a haze of dark mediocrity.
From A to Z,
One to ten and back again.
Red Hair cuts through it all.
Whether youre a Weatherman in Weatherfield,
Or a Minuteman in Manhattan,
Heat leaves you quickest through the top of the head,And its up there where the brains are, that youll find the Red Hair.We, The Redheaded are a hardy, resourceful band.
The Gene we carry has been passed down to us from The Picts, the original inhabitants of Caledonia, modern day Scotland.
The Picts were a potent mix of warrior and artist, The Dominant Gene coursed through their veins. Their reputation as an unpredictable, spontaneous race was the mortar in the bricks of Hadrians Wall.The Picts legacy lives on in Scotland and Ireland today.
Their Stone Circles and Sculptures stud the barren landscapes, giving rhyme and reason to some of the most inhospitable pieces of earth on these islands. The Roman Legions, used to dealing with a cowering, subservient opponent, were caught unaware by the sheer fury of The Picts, their Red hair glinting and sparkling against the Caledonian sun. The Roman Empire ground to a halt at Berwick and all points North.Redheads carry this stubborn resistance to authority and determination to choose their own way in life to this day.Being a Redhead isnt easy.
Nor is climbing Everest or Diving for Pearls.
Its not meant to be, and you wouldnt want it to be.
There are those who do and those who dont,
those who will and those who wont.The Dominant Gene can skip a generation or maybe two, will hide in the Family Tree until the time is right to carry the message, then return to the fold when there are shoulders ready to carry the head and the hair.So gather up your things and prepare for tomorrow, your hair gives you the strength you cannot beg or borrow.Hey Redhead !!
Whether theres sugar on your tongue or theres salt in a wound.You are Red and Proud.
You carry your birthright every hour of every day,
There are millions of people who would love it that way.
