Cigarettes Not Smoked

18 years ago 0 +0 / -0 3307

Each night we can lay our heads down and we have not smoke we have had a one day victory. They say it gets better and do beleive I have had good days. When the stinking thinking starts I know it is the monster trying to take control, but this time I will not let him. I have had so many slips/relaspes in the past. I do not want to go though this again. So I embrace the crave and give a sweet hug and then tell it to go away. I am so worth this quit and so are you!!

What a great way to look at it Katy! I sometimes get mad at myself for the 18 month I quit I blew & think I'd be so much farther ahead if I had kept it. Now I'll think, I'm quit now just like I was then!

you ARE where you were when you had quit a year.....you aren't smoking.....that is exactly where you were then.....don't you see? The winner's circle is a smoke free area....it really doesn't matter how much time you have spent there....when you don't smoke, you win. oh yes, it perhaps becomes easier to stand in the circle...holding the roses....but you and I are there side by side.....so I have been quit "longer"....what does that really mean....nothing.....what matters is that we both are NOT smoking....just keep doing it for the present.....smell those roses??? smell good don't they??? :) katy [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]1/4/2002 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 1986 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 79,440 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $11,320.20 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 260 [B]Hrs:[/B] 19 [B]Mins:[/B] 12 [B]Seconds:[/B] 50
