Good morning fellow Exer's! The Freedom Train is about to start it's daily run to Freedom from tobacco! Before we start, I would like to address those of you who are new here, and don't know much about the Train! Everyday, this Train runs and pays tribute to those who have reached milestones in their quits! The original plan was to honor mulitples of 100 days and mulitples of 1 year! Recently we have been honoring mulitples of 50 days! You do not have to be honored to ride the Train! Everyone who yearns to breathe free is welcome aboard everyday! Whether you contribute or just sit and read, come and celebrate with us, the milestones that are listed here, and the individual milestone we all reach everyday! Bring all of your extra baggage! We will help you sort it out!
The first stop that Freedom Train will make today is in Coastal Georgia! Our good friend, and writer extrordinare, George has 300 Smoke Free Days behind him! George came to this site looking to make some changes in his life! I think when he got to knows us a little bit, we scared the hell out of him! So he started running! Seems like everytime I saw him he was running! I remember one day when I was driving the Train, (it was Daisy's one year anniversary) I saw George running along side the tracks! I slowed as much as I could to give him a chance to jump on! But he just kept running! I have heard reports of him running everywhere! Even as far away as Charleston, SC, where he was spotted running across the Cooper River Bridge! That is quite a feat for any one, much less an EX smoker!
Anyway, George does take time away from his running to come here and chronicle the wonderful changes that quitting have made in his life! Being the excellent wordsmith that he is, George has a unique way of helping us all understand how much better our own lives can be when we live them Smoke Free! So everyone, please, take a little time from your busy Friday, and come aboard the Freedom Train and let "Jawidge" know just how much he means to us all! George, this run is about you!
This Train is bound for FREEDOM from the Evils of tobacco and smoking!!
"IF YOU ARE NOT RIDING WITH US, YOU ARE MISSING THE TRAIN"
ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL ABOARD!!!!!!!!! Tommy
