A Better Quality Of Life

[JonesCarpeDiem]

That's what this is about

      Yes, you could get hit by a bus but that's playing the odds against your health if that's your excuse for smoking.

      Yes, we all gotta die sometime but why not halt the damage and live in the least misery possible.

One thing quitting smoking will give you

Self Respect

SO true, it will raise your self esteem and let you get to know the person you were always meant to be.  It is surprisingly rewarding...in many, many ways.

Hope so!

As I wander through many different things on this Road of Freedom....

I've already discovered, I don't myself,totally and completely. I guess, I built that

Shell of protection around me pretty tight. In the beginning it was placed there

so other people couldn't hurt me. If they didn't know my weaknesses,

they could get to me. Now the Fight to be free of my Addiction is making those walls crumble.

Not sure what I will find under all that rubble.  It is a lifetime of emotional stuffing.

I so agree with this and hope all newbies will read!

Yes---we all die. But the point is you want to live as well as you can until you die.

And you want to live free from an addiction which slowly makes every day revolve around your next smoke.

You're so right, Dale, I feel a lot better about myself now that I'm not sneaking around smoking and spending $ I don't have on "organic" cigarettes, and wondering if I stink, etc.  I feel kinda "pure" in a way, LOL!!!!  And it feels just fine ..
