I am truly starting to feel like a non-smoker and starting to see the profound difference it is making in my life. I didn't realize how much my self image was suffering by continueing my habit. Always worried about if I smelled bad or the impression it gave people. Also all the time involved in waiting until the next break or whatever situating a whole life around one thing making it the all encompassing most important thing. I smoked for 28 years have tried just about everything and this is the first time I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. It's not easy but you wonderful people make it bearable. Many, many thanks. If anyone thinks for whatever reason they should kick themselves because they should know better than to smoke, try being a respirstory therapist and get to see the long term effects almost every day if anyone we should know better. Tricky, tricky thing that demon.

Kinda like the plumber who has a bucket under his kitchen sink because he hasn't fixed his own leak? LOL We all knew better, but did it anyway. But...we've wised up now and that's what counts!

Thanks for such a great post! You all are a non-smoker, friend, isn't it wonderful? It's difficult to put into words how life changes when we give up this addiction. As a Lady says, this is a journey, and an amazing one at that. Congratulations! Just keep putting 1 foot in front of the other, my friend.
