I enjoy my cigarette, be it in a state of complete solitude or amongst like-minded havoc makers...i enjoy my cigarette, yet very strangely, i am not completely enslaved by it...it makes me involuntarily shake my head in dissaproval to see all those young boys light up that dreaded object of my affection, also known as a 'fag',and instantly feel so macho...what a strange world we all live in- a world in which people depend on tobacco to quench their thirst for assurance, acceptance or maybe to provide a window for escape...

But smoking cigarettes was never really 'my thing' from the very beginning (yes and you,dear reader, must be thinking..."duh!") or rather i was not addicted to my fag even say, 4 years back,(i turn 17 in 2008, so do the math!) it was one eventful valentines' day that led to the loss of my innocence...all of a sudden i found myself spiralling down the path to hell..the intoxicated path of destruction and deviation...
What started out as a naive puff to escape this world became the cause of my destruction...i was lost in a sea of marijuana, i was floating in adhesive clouds and before i knew it...i was lost completely, i was so out of touch with reality that i forgot who i was and where i belonged...but it was'nt easy to turn back around and i do admit that the journey has been unpleasant, marred by too many incidents that i pray i forget someday...i lost the ones i had, i lost my sense of belonging, but then again, it was worth the feeling of immense freedom that i experienced. And as far as the loved ones were concerned, the real ones, though wounded, did come back to me eventually and i am thankfull, immensely thankfull to them for that...
So dear reader, it is not just about that one puff from that joint or that chillum...it more than that...its so much much more than that...it is all about letting yourself go with your eyes shut tight, surrendering yourself to fate- who decides what to do with you and your virgin little soul. So be careful, very very careful. I'm not propagating anything, i'm just asking you to keep your eyes open and not let the demons get to you too...
Think about it for a minute. Re-read this if you must. Do what you want to do. Infer whatever you wish to infer. Give me some time, i need to finish the last 'classic' in the pack.
