What’s truly trippy is having a beard for years, many years, and then shaving it. It’s weird to forget what your own face looks like and then see it again for the first time in a decade, and immediately and regretfully remember why you grew a beard in the first place.
Truth! I struggled to grow a beard for a few years in my 20s, but now I think it was just impatience. I didn't know how I needed to slow down. But now I can't imagine not having it. I think about how it looks, and my face with it, and I'm proud of it. It's also where 90% of my greys are though. Ha!

"Thou hide secrets of meals long past, A testament to my eating skill.
But fear not, dear beard, thou shalt last, For I'll groom thee with a mighty will." 😉
