Life is a series of moments

I found out yesterday that my Grandfather had passed away.
This was a sad day for me, I left work early so I could spend some time mourning and reflecting on his life and what he meant to all of us.
I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate his life than to smoke a cigar I have been saving for a reason I did not know. In his honor and to reflect on him and my family, I grabbed a smoke and took a walk to a local semetary during a mild rain. This may all seem a bit morbid to some but for me it all just made sense and seemed right. I feel so much better today and am thankful my Grandfather was able to live a long life and impact all of my family in a positive way. Although I have regrets about not seeing him for a couple years, I am thankful my wife got to spend some time with him a couple weeks ago when she took a trip to California. Like the thread title says: "Life is a series of moments, some good some bad, I am thankful that taking a moment and smoking a cigar helped me to take some time out of my stressful day and deal with this emotional situation in a wonderful way". I will be receiving my Grandfathers beer stein collection and will treasure it always, he was a great man! Rest in peace Henry Smith, you were loved and will never be forgotten!
Thanks for listening, I hope you enjoy the pics of my "moment":
