Be A Baird Man, Not A Beard Man - P.A.S.S.

My grandparent's wedding : My grandfather had this awkward beard on his face which made him look, let's just say 'not handsome'.

My grandmother, belonged from a rich family, she was getting married to my grandfather solely because of his good family background and she had never seen my grandfather before the wedding day. On the day of the wedding, when my grandmother's family saw my grandfather, they weren't particularly happy - because of the uncalled for beard on his face.

On the next morning of the wedding, my grandfather was understandably very tired after a hectic day and was sleeping till late in the morning. Certain people after the wedding were telling my grandmother's father that he had selected the wrong man for my grandmother, they didn't like my grandfather's bearded look. My grandmother's younger sister wasn't liking this (she was just 15) and decided to do something REALLY UNBELIEVABLE.

She CUT my grandfather's beard off while he was asleep and the funny part is - my grandfather didn't even wake up through the process. After a few hours my grandfather woke up and saw his clean-shaved look, he at first was shocked but maintained his composure and after a few minutes realized that all this while, he had been growing a beard for no reason, he looked quite handsome without it and everyone was telling him the same.

This story was told to me by my grandmother a few days ago and NOW I understand why my grandfather HATED when I grew a beard a few months ago. He asked me 'don't you want to look handsome! Why the beard'?

Moral of the story : Clean shaved look has been appreciated for many years now, don't you wanna regard your seniors and abide by the same! :D
