This review then led to this post.

There are few moments in my busy schedule that I just stop and appreciate all that life has given me. I tend to live in the now because of all the setbacks I've received through the years. Some out of my control, others just simply mistakes that I have to live with.

One thing I've always appreciated is my friends. Specifically those who believe in me. Without them I'd accomplish nothing.

One such friend shook me to the very core with the smallest of packages.

Within the small package was this note.

Quote:

Jordan,

Enclosed in this box are three special cigars from me. The box was handmade to the specifications of the enclosed cigars by Scott Shilala. My hopes for you in these cigars are that you hold them and smoke each one in its time. The first is to be for celebration of your graduation. The second would be in celebration of your wedding. The third would be in celebrating welcoming your first child into this world.

Over the months on CS I have come to consider you a great friend and think that you will go on to enjoy great things in life, the cigars are my reminder to you to stop and enjoy life's great moments as they are fleeting.

Warm regards,

Shawn (SilverFox)

Shawn... I don't even know where to begin... I'll start with thank you and hope to fulfill all that is deserved by such a gift. It definitely made me give pause to appreciate all that life will have in store for me, no matter how long it takes to achieve it.
