I've shared one particular memory before of smoking on new year's eve with a good family friend Sam. We were the last ones awake and I had brought a Padron 64 for him and a huge Tatuaje for myself. He has a pretty big humidor but doesn't ever buy expensive smokes. He broke out into the biggest goofy grin when he lit the Padron. It was priceless. After 30 minutes of good conversation his phone rings, (this was after midnight). It was his son telling him to get dressed and head to the hospital, his grandson was about to come into the world. Needless to say he rushed inside to get dressed and make a pot of coffee. About 15 minutes later he comes back outside before leaving and would you believe that Padron was still lit and smoking like he never sat it down.

Another experience I remember clearly was just about 2 years ago . I had recently gotten out of a relationship that I had been dying to end for several months. I had moved into a new place that I absolutely love. It's sort of a 2 story townhouse style place with a big balcony coming off my bedroom. There are a couple big palm trees in front that hang right over it, forming a perfect little tropical canopy.

I was very happy with my new place but I still had lingering feelings of loneliness at night. I was on my own for the first time in several years and while relatively happy, I was also desperate for some good company. I had my eye on one particular special lady and finally got the chance to take her out. We had a great time, talked and drank champagne late into the evening, so late in fact that she decided to just stay over and fall asleep.

I wasn't tired yet so I decided to step onto the balcony to smoke a Party short. Sitting there on my balcony I started to reflect on the last 12 months and how I had completely changed my life for the better. Gone was the apartment that I hated, which I shared with a woman I didn't love. just peace and quiet remained. There I was, in my own private tropical paradise, smoking one of the best cigars on the planet. Looking through the window at the beautiful lady asleep in my bedroom, I suddenly had a feeling of accomplishment and hopefulness for the future that I won't ever forget.

As a side note, that beautiful lady and I are still together today. She'll be moving in with me next month and we plan to marry sometime next year.
cheers!
