Today is the day that I sing my solo.  I  will try to stay calm.  We are performing a major concert today at church.  One of my friends asked me if she could accompany me. She is a smoker. Ugh!!! (shame on me, I use to be one) lol  I have not told her that I have quit smoking.  So today I will stay on point and know thaI I can not be influenced to take one puff or I will be hooked again. This is the second time I will have been around someone that smokes since my quit.  The last time it was a little bit of a strain especially when they left my presence it was like they left something with me. (Spirits)? lol.  So here I am  again,  not on my lips, not in my hand, not on my tongue, not in my lungs, not in my clothes and not in my nose.  This little poem is a reminder for me.  It has worked for me in a funny way. .I will ask my friend not to smoke around me please.  So here I go.  Talk to you guys later.  Happy Easter.  I am a non smoker today and forever more.  I am keeping my quit.   FREEDOM!!!!!!! Pray

P.S. My profile picture is the Easter basket I made for my granddaughter.

Lay aside every weight that may be slowing you down. Make up your mind not to allow doubt cause you to stumble. You can do this! Do not allow fear , False Expectations Appearing Real to hold you down. You can do this! Break the chains of addiction, forgive yourself for ever smoking. move forward and start loving yourself more each day by staying smokefree. Put aside worry, anxiety, depression, any EXcuse that you would use to not get in or stay in the race of freedom. Take one day at a time, one step if necessary. Run the race diligently, steady and sure with endurance. Believe that you can. Keep your eye on the prize. Hang tough, stay close, be mindful, never give in, never give up.
