The Beard

I grew my beard shortly after High school, then it was a winter time activity now I sport one full time due to a religious thing and I honestly hate shaving, I, if I shave have to do so twice a day, too much work a once aweek trim is alot easier to maintain plus my beard is like my hair on my head  soft, Silvery.
My family are bunch of devout clean shavers  and I came home with it and thought my mom would not like it, she turned me around and told me to keep the beard that it made me look good, and distinguished,
and I hope my future bride (wherever she may be) because Iam not  shaving it has beena part of me for long time and I intend to keep it that way
