"It's your choice."

"It's always been your choice."  So said the Angel Gabriel in one of my favorite movies, Constantine.

Choice is a double-edged sword. It is completely your choice to smoke, or to vape, or to chew, or to put nicotine in your body in any possible way. It's also completely your choice to be free of all of that.

Choice = Responsibility.

It's all on you.

Only you.

No one else is to blame for your addiction, and certainly no one else is to blame for your continued use.

It's not your job's fault that you need to smoke on your breaks.

It's not your family's fault or your friends' fault that just because they all smoke so do you.

It's not the fault of the world situation now or before or ever that you use nicotine.

It's all on you.

Only you.

Every single day it's your choice.

Choose wisely.

I became nicotine-free on Christmas Day 2017. That's what I use as my quit date. I had smoked cigarettes for 45 years, then vaped Juuls for a few months before quitting cold turkey when I used up my supply of pods. I am a retired widow, living in Upstate NY.
