Hey, Tom! 

It seems I am a bit late for this heated party, but be sure I am here and I am watching you  

The most impressive thing that your beard started to leave your chin downwards. Very well for the seventh week! I also see I’ve done a great job with your neckline, looks nice and gives you neat (and even polished) appearance. Carry on!

About looking like a Taliban, such a stupid thing. I was called a mujahid, don’t be bothered with this. Be patient instead!

All the best,
Dimm

There is no reason not to grow a beard!
