Cigar is similar to a road-trip in many ways. Like Phil Jackson once said, cigarits an experience. Its also about sharing, appreciating and enjoying the moment. It promotes connecting between people and at times can be inspiring.

From picking a good cigar--the cigars size, shape, construction, smell, color, taste, smoke, burn, aroma, to cutting, handling it, what matches to use, how to light it up, the first draw, nurture the burningits an art form!!

To me, it also simulates some elements of meditation--soothing, calming, involving, focusing......

Whether its celebration, friends gathering, special occasion, while having thoughts, or just chilling a quiet evening alone, a good cigar can always be part of it........

Time to light one up.

Peace out.
