~~Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty, than the person who has nothing to eat.~~ Blessed Teresa of Calcutta I read an article on FB where a 79 year old man, recently released from the hospital, called 911 because he had nothing to eat and no one who cared. Broke my heart. In the same way when those here relapse...or don't ever quit...and they feel alone, unwanted, or abandoned by others. Breaks my heart. I can't remind you enough that you are much more precious than you ever give yourself credit for!! You are so much more than 'a smoker' or a serial quitter'. You are a miracle the world's been waiting for!! The universe is just waiting for you to find your sparkle. Yes, I can be poetic rather than 'normal' but I am honest and sincere. Each of you matter. To me, to this site, to your family and friends, to the world. Know that we believe in you. That we are your biggest fans and loudest cheering section. NEVER give up on yourselves!!! You are cared about, you are wanted, and you are loved. You don't have to blog here or write or put yourself out there....I know you're out there. I used to be you. Gentle hugs, Sheri
