What I will tell you, is, after being here a long time, I, and others read between the lines of what you write and see the signs. (good and bad)
We'll ask you questions, tell you not to fight
We've seen why people just can't get it right (a thousand times.)
Condensing all, it's willingness and time.
When you give in and smoke it would appear you haven't been listening with your mind's ear.
There's clinging to the lie that smoking still holds something dear, Yet
Our hope and wish is that you learn to live, not be a slave to cigarettes.
If you fail, learn why, then do, don't try.
Our society has turned into a "trying is good enough" one. As my girls were growing up, they got trophies for just showing up - the trophies didn't mean a thing to them because they really didn't anything special to earn them, and they knew it
Just trying doesn't work with quitting smoking (nor in most of life)!
Good point, Dale!
