Hello :) I'd like to share my 100 Day Hurdle 'reward' with you; my fellow NOPE Quitters here at SSC. It's a song called 'All I Need' that I posted on my profile. HOW BOLD I am these days! Actually, Penitent 'dared' me to put it up to share here. And well . . . I just can't resist a 'dare'! Thanx Pen! LOL. Truth be told, I have lots of songs I've written/recorded, but have (previously) been afraid to share any of them, so this is my first Youtube profile ever!
NOW - it's always been on my Bucket List to 'publish' a song - but I'm ambiguous about marketing my work - and ya - I realize other people do it all the time! But my own music is cathartic for me and very close to my <3 - it's when I'm most raw - that's when a song finds me . . . so I've resisted the 'sell' to date. Nevertheless, regardless of potential 'pay' (or not!) - it feels incredible to set this song free; no telling who's ears it may land on - how intriguing is that? I'm even OKAY with those who can't stand it because it doesn't speak to them at all! This is a huge 'Bucket List' realization for me! For me, this song embodies my 100 day 'Quit' to date - so I thought maybe others here can relate too?
I have NO DOUBT I'd have bailed on my QUIT promise to my Dad had it not been for the support I received from the caring members of this site ever since my first day joined. Turns out, I didn't get my Quit Date 'honestly set' until 3 weeks later tho' - when I finally clued into NOPE! That's when I realized I can DO this! I can Stay Quit with NOPE (Not One Puff Ever!) Coming out of my smoker's closet, reaching out to others here, sharing, learning, yearning, crying, laughing - in fact, lately I've lived on this Site more than I care to admit! and I sincerely Thank you for being here! SO - let's take it One Step further:
To officially extend the 'Bucket List Challenge' to anyone here who's ready to step up to the plate! What have you got on your back burner that you always wanted to do but always found an excuse NOT to?
I hope all you new quitters hovering around the Site with your fresh green butterflies will keep reading the HOF stories, the great threads, the long term Quitters STATS (that prove it can be done!) and come an post yourself - ask (?) if you need to, and find your own power in reining in NicoDemon for good! And don't forget to let us know what YOU are going to do for your
Bucket List Challenge! Cheerios! Eya
