The Daily Pledge - April 2019

Happy April everyone and welcome to the Daily Pledge in the Celebrations & Events‌ community where we can meet daily to take another person's hand and make our commitment stronger.

 

"The first of April is the day we remember what we are the other 364 days of the year." - Mark Twain

April 1 is known to many as April Fools' Day only the Daily Pledge is not fooling anyone!  Our daily commitment to not smoke, no matter what, is sometimes the ONE thing that gets us through the day without a puff - NOPE!  Not One Puff EVER! 

 

April is also known to many as Autism Awareness month.  April 2 is World Autism Awareness day.  I will tell you I have a son who has autism so we celebrate his abilities every day and are well too aware on a daily basis and not just for the month of April.  I can say the best thing I ever did for myself and my family was to quit smoking!  While I am not on the site as much anymore due to a busy job (so my husband can stay home with our children), I think of everyone here daily and want to shout from the rooftops how AWESOME it is to not smoke anymore!

 

Don't be a fool on April 1 or the other 364 days of the year!  Pledge not to smoke today (and everyday), no matter what,  and Extend your hand to the nEXt EXer who chooses to pledge the same.  It is a choice.  Make the best choice!  

 

If you are ready to pledge, this is how you do it!

Welcome to the EX, Melissa!  Congratulations on your decision to become free of the addiction that all of us here share.  Our freedom comes from far more than willpower; a big part of it is educating ourself about how nicotine has ensnared us emotionally and habitually, as well as physically.  There are a LOT of resources here that will help you, as well as wonderful and wise people who have gone before us in seeking to be free of this killer addiction.  Welcome!
