In one of the great Sherlock Holmes stories Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote that Sherlocks pipe was like a counsel to him. A friend he could go to, to help sort out his troubles. I have much the same regard for my pipes. When I am in deep thought, or when I am frustrated, or when I just need to relax. I head straight for my cabinet or rack witch ever the case maybe and I know that I will find peace in the fact that my pipes are there for my comfort.

My pipes are dear to me for the distraction from pain they afford me. The calming affect they have on me reduces my stress which in turn decreases my pain levels.

Although being a cigarette smoker far longer that a pipe smoker, I find the pipe brings solace cigarettes never could...like a good and faithful canine buddy.

I'm afraid I'm not as introspective as some... my pipes are my pipes. No more, no less.

My pipes are a vehicle on which I embark on this incredible journey of discovery of wonderful tobacco blends. :puffy:

Pipes to me are contemplation, relaxation, calming. I can start a smoke upset but rarely am when I'm done. They are also a thing of beauty and function following form. I sometimes think of my pipe rack and tobacco stash as being like a fine restaurant where I'm handed a menu - I get to chose what I want to eat but also the knife and fork I am going to use.
