Will I Keep My Goatee if it Goes All White? An Aging Conundrum

I always wondered if my goatee hair goes all white, how will I look and will I keep it? My wife tells me that I look like a small girl when I clean shave, perhaps something for me to fall back on when I hit 50? Haha!
I do have a couple of white hair around the goatee, probably 10 to 15 – while some are out of the goatee range line, some are in, and it’s where I have to resort to scissors to remove them. Sometimes I think hairless men are lucky not to be bothered by such conundrum, but then again, can hairless men be construed as men in the first place?
Where has the time gone? It’s funny how when we’re in our teens, we can’t wait to hit 21 years old, then enjoy 20s to the best that we can, embrace turning 30 then try to hit on the brakes! Unfortunately life doesn’t work that way – you either embrace it or try to fight a losing battle.
I might clean shave when I age as I think having a white hair goatee will look ridiculous and probably be more apt on a goat.
I also have 2 white hair on my chest, but that’s a story for another day!
