    My goatee is my symbol of resistance - my wife pesters me almost daily to shave it off.

    From Nazi to Nasty !

    only joking old friend, I think you are an advert for how leaving the cult is good for your health ! In the first photo you do not look well, mentally or physically, in the second you ooze good health and well- being !

    You and I could do with loosing a few pounds I know, so here is a scientifically proven tip, it is not the Beer that keeps the weight on,

    I gave up Beer for four hours once and didn't lose a thing.

    The first guy I wouldn't give 35 seconds of my time. The second guy however, yeah I'd hang out with him.

    hey cantleave: When did you finally notice a smile returned to your face? I ask as my family said that while I was in I was generally morose, miserbale and at times horribly uncaring. Getting out was the best thing - spiritually and physically. For one, I too enjoy a nice goatee, but have also shed almost 60lbs (since 2010 when we faded) as I stopped medicating myself with food to combat the feelings of a lack of selfworth, fighting horribly cruel people in the congrgratation who expect perfection and the constant stress of being an elder. I have a much better relationship with God.
