Rosary Shampoo

I’m a husband and father of two grown daughters. When they were in school and living at home, with three women under one roof, I found myself in the SHAMPOO AISLE at Target more than I would care to admit. In my opinion, it’s the longest aisle in Target with the highest number of choices for any single product offered; SHAMPOO. If I were an English teacher, I would make that aisle a ‘field trip” or at the very least, a homework assignment. There are a whole bunch of new uses for adverbs and adjectives the students need to learn.

 

Did you know some shampoo’s structurize and others re-structurize your hair, even though neither are recognized words in Funk and Wagnall’s dictionary. Some vitalize while others re-vitalize, some activate while others re-activate hair. My favorite was the stuff that either hydrates, moisturizes or re-hydrates and re-moisturizes, which, to me, meant “gets your hair wet”. Isn’t that the point of shampooing in the first place? There is a shampoo that infuses, enriches, escalates, penetrates, balances, expands, nourishes, manages, corrects and most importantly disciplines human hair. Of all the brands that re-plentish, re-store, re-build, re-construct and refresh hair, not a single shampoo manufacturer says it washes hair clean. 

 

Now, this is beginning to sound a little “Sixty Minutes/Andy Rooney-esk”, but I’d like to suggest that the Rosary can perform similar feats as what the Shampoo manufacturers represent. I also realize the risk in offending the more pious Catholic readers in writing the next few sentences, but my fallback is the belief that God really does have a sense of humor. Are you ready for the punch line? The Rosary will penetrate and enrich your soul. It can fortify your faith and beliefs, clarify your thought process, activate, balance and nourish your spirituality and infuse you with the Holy Spirit. Over time, it will restore, re-build, re-plentish, re-vitalize, and yes, I’m going to say it, re-structurize your relationships with the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Holy Trinity, the Apostles, the Holy Catholic Church, all the Angels and Saints and you, my brothers and sisters – as the Contrition  prayer so wonderfully states – ultimately keeping you sane in an un-sane world.
