It's irritating #WillYouShave ?

‘”Why do they keep such beards?” Sheena often got irritated whenever she encountered a man with a beard.

When she was asked the reason, she always said,” Nothing personal. It’s their choice to keep a beard, I understand. Just that I can’t see their lips when they talk , and it’s irritating. What’s the use when you can’t listen to the music in their words?” How true it felt in that moment.

That day was not different when a guy approached her and asked her something. She tried to help but felt helpless because  she couldn't decipher a single word because of his beard and had to walk away giving a weird look to the guy.

Ever-smiling, Sheena was deaf by birth but she was too good at lip reading. She understood every word and its rhythm. Passionate about singing and dancing, she took up music as her career. Her family and friends motivated her to an extent that she never felt her disability. No one could ever imagine that she was deaf. Always cheerful, she was an inspiration to everyone around.  

She used to spend most of her time with her students. One day she was invited as the chief guest in a music concert. Auditorium was full. She then looked around and heaved a sigh of relief. One by one the performers came up on the stage and gave in their best. She was enjoying the evening.

Just in between the truly amazing performances she started feeling uneasy when she saw the next contestant, with long hair and beard, almost covering his lips. Craziness of people could be seen as soon as he came on stage, but for her, his beard was a disaster. She couldn’t understand a single word sung by the artist just because of his long beard that made it almost impossible for her to read his lips. She couldn’t enjoy the concert anymore.
