golferman,duffis,and Lady,
I have spent two days reading and learning from this post, I have took what I needed and left the rest. I admire each of your quits, but they are not mine. Only I with your help now and then can protect my quit and grow toward maturity. I don't think you ever quit learning and growing. Looking toward our goal that each day brings us closer. There is a light at the end of that tunnel, that will bring more confidence to us.
Each day when I log in, you bet your bippy I look at the days I have been a non-smoker. Every one of them are precious too me. Each day represents growth toward maturity. I try not to look back at some of the hard days because they will only slow me down. If I do allow myself to look back I find myself lost in those thoughts. I try not to think of failure, that word to me says, loosers, unworthy, anger,and sadness.
I, like so many of you are learning so much about our selves, where my weakness are, and where my strong points are. So each day I try to work on one of my weak points. Because of this quote I do this:

I know that I will never be perfect, and neither will you, but we have to keep on striving toward the goal!!!
