My Dearest Cigarette 

Thankyou for being my friend . 

You supported my asthma . Gave me things like arteriosclerosis , copd , heart disease  , things I maybe never would have ever had , without you . Thanks a heap . Thank you for being my friend . Not ! 

You supported me while I was away from family gatherings . I was outside with you instead .. I could hear everyone inside having fun , playing cards , laughing . I longed to be there with them too but you needed me so I spent time with you instead .  You stole from me . Thief ! 

Thank you my friend.  You took my mom and my dad and I grew up so fast because I had to . I hate you . They were so young . Murderer! 

Thank you too for teaching me about budget and how to save enough to make ends meet . I learned to take you free from others  just to save a little extra for food .... and I learned to save my nickels and dimes for you .  You were priority.  You broke me more than once !

You starved me .... now I'm starving you !  

Thank you .

I learned in order to keep you alive I could sell the shirt off my back for you and that all we had to do was live day to day together to make it through . You Liar !  I'm paying the price ! 

Dear cigarette , You are a liar , a thief , a fake, a murderer , a manipulator , deciever and a few other choice words I won't mention here .. you aren't worth it !

Maki‌, you hit the nail on the head!  This is great.  You really captured a lot of my thoughts and feelings here.  Thanks for posting it.

A great, honest and impactful goodbye letter to cigarettes Maki‌. I find I have to periodically re-read mine to keep my head clear and invested in being totally smoke-free.

I honestly believe that writing these letters are an important part of our quits~

This is my letter in case you'd care to read it:https://excommunity.becomeanex.org/people/SuzyQ411/blog/2020/01/03/goodbye-forever?sr=search&searchI...
