When I had my last cigarette I did not write a letter but instead said one thing "Good-bye old friend".
For me that was the truth, as toxic as this friend was, it was a friend who was always there for me, thru thick and thin, good and bad, happy and sad.
Now, I am happy to say, I no longer need friends like that today.

Yup!!!
Did the same thing on the same day and never looked back!!!
My letter was a bit rougher on the nasty cancer sticks, though!
My goodbye to the left overs was a bit more violent, too!!
Oh well, lost and gone for ever!!! :)

[color=Blue]Sylvie, as a matter of fact I did just THAT on the
1st day of my smoke free life ! This might sound kind of weird,
I wrote a note which went something like this -
"To all of 'you' left over, (the cig's left over in a pack)
I'm saying goodbye FOREVER !
You are now no longer part of my life !
My life will NOT be cut short by you it will now be prolonged
as a result of me getting rid of you !"
I stuffed the note inside the left over pack and threw it down
the garbage chute.
Strange huh ? LOL ! But it felt so freakin' good :)
And here I am 30 days later with no regrets and feeling like
I can do anything ! It really gave me a sense of closure.
Peace

Members,
The finality of a letter can help you achieve closure. Start the letter and get the closure you need. Do you need to close a chapter in your life? Do you need to say goodbye to someone or something?
You don�t need to send the letter, only have it written to receive the closure you are looking for.
Have you said goobye to your smoking life yet?
