Put That in Your Pipe...



As many of you are aware, I have been a very ardent pipe smoker and enjoyer of the hobby since I was a young kid. Yet, as of late I have been having a bit of emotional turmoil about my indulgence in the hobby. I am not sure what I should do.

Part of me thinks I enjoy smoking a pipe, I enjoy the art, the ritual, the flavor, the mental stimulation/relaxation, and enjoy the history of the hobby. Yet a part of me also feels more-and-more an outsider, worry about the hobby creeps in, and so, I am just not sure what I am thinking or planning at the moment... I just know I feel confused, isloated, and sad about either choice... continuing to smoke my pipes or to instead quit them.

I just do not know.

    You see smoking a pipe as a hobby? I'll be go to hell. Just admit it, you're hooked on the nicotine like any of us smokers are.

    I made my own little pipe a while back so now instead of buying packs of ciggs that now cost over six bucks a pack my smoking doesn't cost me six bucks a day cuz a 6 ounce pouch of tobacco for five bucks lasts me about four days.

    That's saving me a lot of money, my favorite tobacco is Midnight Special. It's a cigarette and not a pipe tobacco but it's what I like.

    I think a little weed might help with your mood disorder.
    In moderation of course!

    Come on, professor...So much of you is in your revered art of pipe-smoking...I always thought that part of the reason you smoked was to remember your father...Be well, get better...GaP

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
