DAY 82 THE PROMISES

For all the things we do in life,  Nothing is guaranteed,  But promises are the next best thing to a guarantee. I guarantee if I continue to smoke I will have severe health issues, I  promise I will QUIT , and I will breath much better. I guarantee if I continue to smoke I will have shortness of breath.  But the promises of QUITTING have guaranteed results. By  QUITTING  The promises are endless, I will live longer, That's no guarantee, But a FACT! That each day I don't smoke I gain a few minutes of my life back. I promise to spend time with my grandchildren., Be it shooting hoops or pushing them in a swing. I promise to live a life better than the one I left behind, I promise to have fun on this journey of QUIT. I GUARANTEE that if I continue to smoke I will DIE! I PROMISE TO NEVER STOP QUITTING! GOOD  LUCK TO US ALL!

Well said!  I agree.  I especially like when you stated "to live a life better than the one I left behind".  We have left that behind!  Day 95 for me, with the help of blogs like yours  😉

Thank You for posting that, there are many promises that get fulfilled when we stop an addiction, the 12 step program has a full page of promises, I bet the 12 step nicotine anonymous has the promises in there too. May be worth a search.

I don't have a nicotine anoymous book or I'd post them.

Thanks again for the reminders

warm regards

Couldn't have said it better!!  How about,  promise to quit smoking and it will guarantee many beautiful moments made that much better because they are free.  Promise to make every moment count and guarantee you will be proud of your strength that got you here!! 

Thank you for the wonderful reminder!
