GOODBYE

20 years ago 0 +0 / -0 3368

If by saying..... To all the members here that are trying to quit smoking I say to you stop trying you are killing yourself. The secret is to just quit and get on with your life. You perceive you�re self as a prisoner of smoking when in fact you are not. Get a grip and just don�t smoke, there is a lot more to life than dwelling on your thought process that says you are an addict when in reality you are just a smoker who is going to quit smoking ..... is thinking outside of the box ... then we have another member who thinks the same way ... me! I appreciate the straight talk. No need to beat around the bush, it just prolongs the process in my opinion. I'm glad that I caught this thread. May your journey be an enlightened one.

That one was odd to me. I see what he's saying about letting go, but why would someone with such insight not stick around...Don't get it at all. You have talked to him more than I, but...Why not tell more...Maybe I'm just another lost soul or something, but it would have been nice to hear more. Later!

duffis - I have not had the pleasure of knowing you personally as many here have. But I am honoured to be a part of this amazing and powerful family of Quitters, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your powerful presence here, a presence that will live on to touch other hearts and souls, a presence that will shine a Bright Light in the darkest hour when it seems there is no light at the end of that long tunnel... And your Light will make the difference in lives as we hold it, honour it and make sure it is always burning... A tribute to you, duffis ... I am sending you as much healing White Light and positive energy as I can muster (and that's alot) and I also send you my love and my gratitude. I feel like I am saluting an unparallelled elder of our family. And I am honoured to do so... Take good care of yourself... Love and Blessings- Healer xox [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/5/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 73 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 2,558 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $339.45 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 9 [B]Hrs:[/B] 11 [B]Mins:[/B] 33 [B]Seconds:[/B] 37

duffis, As you said I really don't know where to start, and I feel the same way. Your wise posts will be greatly missed. You are so right about meditation, it is such a release of emotions if you are willing to do so. It's only by faith that we reach another plateau. So duffis, on this journey do lots of meditating. There you will find more answers that you have been searching for. Your journey home will be worth all your struggles. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Lots of love and respect to you also duffis!!!!

Duffis, I salute you! you will be missed but at the same time it has been my great pleasure to have shared these boards with you! You can indeed leave with your head held very high, for you have inspired so many of us to continue with our quits. So long, farewell and it has been a pleasure to have shared your company! :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 2/6/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 100 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 1,201 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] �250 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 18 [B]Hrs:[/B] 6 [B]Mins:[/B] 27 [B]Seconds:[/B] 19

fare thee well, ol' timer. And thank you. You are inspiration. "Come to the edge." "We can't. We're afraid." "Come to the edge." "We can't. We will fall!" "Come to the edge." And they came. And he pushed them. And they flew. -Guillaume Apollinaire I have a feeling you've pushed quite a few. keep fightin' the good fight - you'll be missed - fish [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 12/21/2005 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 147 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 4,426 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $735 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 19 [B]Hrs:[/B] 1 [B]Mins:[/B] 58 [B]Seconds:[/B] 56
