Tell us about a guilty pleasure that you hate to love.
I love and enjoy being outside every day either at the beach or in the mountains enjoying the beauty of mother-nature.
I’m in love with the sounds of leaves shaking from a gentle wind, morning song birds chirping, and the occasional sounds of deer, or other animals walking through a forest.
My mind and soul soften with the sounds of waves upon waves colliding against the shoreline while shore birds walk along searching for food. These moments provides a calm, peaceful, and relaxed feeling.
However, two or three times during the year while enjoying these moments of bliss, I enjoy my guilty pleasure of smoking a fine cigar, preferably a dark colored Connecticut wrapper surrounding a beautiful, robust flavored leaf.
Now, I know it is bad for my health, it leaves my breath smelling bad, and the cigar aroma stays in my clothing until washed.
Yet, I never feel guilty while enjoying my cigar several times a year outside in the presence of mother nature.
I love the smell of cigar and pipe. The aroma arouses the senses and to me not offensive like a cigarette. I use to go fishing in our boat and loved a Crook, a rum soaked cigar…fish like it….wink wink. I have since given it totally up but when I pass by someone, if I am lucky enough, who is partaking a smoke from a cigar or pipe I take in the lingering aromas as much as I can….Merry Christmas 🙂
Hey, MLou, Merry Christmas! After writing the post, I plan to buy a cigar and on Christmas morning, I will be at the beach smoking a cigar. Lol 🙂
Thank you….I will picture you on Christmas morning lounging on the beach with cigar smoke trailing lusciously in the air and drool cause “I’ve got snow” ugh…… 🙂 Such is life…..the choices we make. Hugs and enjoy my friend
I will post a photo from the beach for you to enjoy. Lol, 🙂
Looking forward to it!
It’s a pleasure and a treat if you don’t do it all the time!
I don’t mind cigar smoke- though I do enjoy the ones that smell like chocolate.
I can’t vouch for what it actually tastes like when you smoke it, but it is nice
Hey Animar64, I know lots of people who hang out in cigar shoppes just to smell the smoke. Lol! 🙂
Thank you for the reblog of my latest post Animar64. 🙂

This is what being at peace with yourself and relaxing looks like in words.
I really enjoyed this post and wanted to share it.
