Vaheguru ji ka khalsa, vaheguru ji ki fateh!!
With guru ji's kirpa i became a gursikh when i was 10 coz the time felt rite, so in a way I'v dealt with a lot of the probs gursikh girls face from an early age. To tell the truth tho i think if u become a gursikh later in life it is probably harder because there's so many things that u may hav done such as cut ur hair, drink alcohol etc, and i hav so much respect for n e one who can change from such a life towards a completely different, yet more rewarding path. It is v important for one 2 be a strong person within to go against the "trend". There are a few, hmm, lets say challenges (lol) that i do face occasionally at uni n everyday life - n i agree with the bhenji who mentioned hair - but in that case u just hav to think this is how vaheguru made me - i am who i am - and n e 1 who tells u different isn't worth knowing. I can guarantee that u n probably many others, incl me, will face many challenges as a gursikh, but the reward will be more sweeter :umm:
