500 Days!

Please don't miss the train I'm on

Listen to the Freedom Song

All the cigarettes are gone 500 days

I don't miss those things at all 

Now I'm standing proud and tall

And it's been 500 days since they've been gone


500 days, 500 days I don't miss the smoky haze
and the choking has been gone 500 days

I can breathe unimpaired

There's no stink in my hair

Nasty cigarettes are gone 500 days

When I did my big face plant

On that sidewalk with the slant

Did not think of smoking once or going back

 

500 days, 500 days I don't miss the smoky haze
and the choking has been gone 500 days

 

(with thanks to gnu for all he gnud and to the Ex community for helping me make it this far)

I smoked until a vascular surgeon informed me of the damage I had done to myself by doing so. I quit 11 years ago, and I can swim laps virtually FOREVER now, walk most other days 40 minutes to an hour and a half. What a difference quitting has made in my life! I strive to help others find this wonderful freedom from addiction, too.
