Yep! Another year has gone by that we have faced more challenges that life throws at us.  Out of all the good things that happen to us we remember most about those who we lost to cancer.  I am one grateful gal who quit after watching my dad die of lung cancer and swore that I wouldn't touch another cigarette again. That was on December 1st of 2010.  Let me tell you all something who keep writing that it's hard, you don't know if you can do this, that you failed and are trying again.  This is all part of quitting!!!!  We held on to a best friend for years!!!! That deadly friend has taken so many of our loved ones and it's harder than hell to quit.  BUT!!! You have to decide to be stronger than that!  If you cheat...you're not ready.  If you sneak "just one puff"....you're not ready.  I enjoy seeing the successes that everyone posts.  It makes me smile.  And when I see that someone has messed up and are back to try again I pray for them.  I want for ALL OF US TO SUCCEED!!!  So, before you decide to quit....you MUST be ready!  2014 needs to be a year where we see less and less people dying from smoking!!!  Stay active! Keep your promise to yourself! Find a Relay for Life in your area and join a team or start one yourself.  It's a BLAST!!!! And you'll be making a difference!!  And remember....EVERYONE LOVES A QUITTER!!!!  Happy New Year to everyone!!!  Hugs and kisses to all of you!!!!  MUAH!!!!
