Panic

I had to go to the grocery store and while In line at the customer service counter I overheard the cashier telling a lady in front of me that they were out of her brand.  The lady was discussing other brands she'd smoke instead.  The cashier said they were selling out fast.  That made me stop and think about the panic I myself would be in right now if I still smoked.  I'd be out right now trying to hoard cigs like toilet paper!  I'd have no concern for mine, or possibly my daughters safety right now.  Cigs would be my priority.  Sad thought!  I can feel empathy for that lady.  I'm so glad that isn't my reality anymore.

I'm 43 and started smoking at age 16. A smoker of 27 years! Wow, that's a long time :( I've stopped multiple times in the past but ended up going back within a few months. This time I stopped cold turkey with lots of prayer. A spiritual quit. God is good!
