Lady, Thank you for sharing your story. I am sure that each and everyone of us has that 'special' place we go to when times are tough. I am so very glad that you are able to return to this place of comfort as a new person. Take Care, Melanie ________________________ The SSC Support Team

Shevie.. Emotional Milestone, never thought of it that way. Pete� you and Duffis are both amazing people in my opinion. I think you have something there with the study thing at the park. The kids can play and I can study. Joe�I am looking forward to new associations and new positive memories. All part of the journey. Celia.. I have a feeling that letting go of that past is like quitting smoking. Take the plunge and do it and then you just wish you had done it sooner. We will make it to one year before you know it. Jan�you are a nut! Your day in the park will come as well. Just keep going. John W� My smokeless friend in OK � I share my experiences out of amazement and in hopes that in some way they may help others. If my posts help others believe in themselves then I am accomplishing my mission. Thank you for your kind words. It�s always great to see you. JJ�I like savoring the good. I just need to do it more often. RiverdaleMan and Chicken � you both have awesome quits going. I have no doubt that both of you will be successful quitters forever more. It is a pleasure to watch you both grow stronger in your quits. Thank you all for your kind words. This life changing, soul searching experience never ceases to amaze me. What a Journey!

They say it takes a whole year to experience everything you did as a smoker as a non-smoker. Up the street from my home we have a neighborhood park. This park use to be my hiding place when I needed to get away from my ex. I would sit at the park and I would smoke. I would stay for long periods of time giving everyone a chance to cool off and me a chance to reflect and breathe. I do not know why but for some reason I wound up at this park last night. I sat at the same picnic table that I�ve always sat at, and I thought of all the times I had sat in that very same spot, smoking. I even romanticized it for a second or two about how nice it would be to smoke and just let it all go. Then I realized something. I found myself reflecting. It�s been over 3 years since I�ve been in this park alone. I remember spending a lot of time there, crying and smoking. Last night, as I sat at that picnic table, I wasn�t crying. I was smiling. I have been working so hard at letting go of the past and tonight as I sat there I realized that I am letting it go. The failures, mistakes and disappointments of my past are haunting me less now. I am learning how to function as a non-smoker instead of hiding behind a cigarette. I don�t have to run to a cigarette every time something happens in my life. This park served as a place of peace and solitude in my past. Tonight it served the same purpose but to a different person. This person is the new me who is breaking free of an addiction and a past she doesn�t like. I just sat there and smiled. I have come so far. I am happy and I am smoke free. Hang in there folks. It really does get better.

Lady, Great observation! Pete hit the nail on the head when she commented about you going to the park to study now. Time to build new associations. It's funny how places we have been can induce such strong emotions. As your new, non-smoking persona continues to grow you will probably find more places that will create new, positive memories for you. [b][color=Purple]Be Strong. Be Smart.

Emotional milestones are great, aren't they Lady. The park sounds like it used to represent refuge. Now it can represent triumph. I'm so proud of you, Lady.
