Thanks Lady
To smoke or not to make the choice to be free from nicotine, smoking or not. I know that I make these choices many times a day.
I have in the past "tried" to quit and I have failed because as you say I quit quitting. There have been times where I would be quit and allow myself three puffs off of each of 10 cigarettes a day, I was not quit I was still smoking. I could go into all kinds of different scenarios of how I "tried" to quit and it just was not happening. I still wanted to smoke. I still wanted to be fed by the nicotine, my drug of choice for some 36 years.
Today I make a different choice. I step onto a different path, I go down a different road. I choose to live healthy, I choose to be physically fit, I choose to heal my lungs (think pink). There are a hundred, thousand choices I make each day and they are about what I will do, what I am creating, what I am doing in a proactive way. I get to choose how and what I will choose.
I hope, think and direct my thoughts to go to making this different and new choice each day and I hope beyond any power there is that I will not get to tomorrow, 365 days, 450 days any time in the future and want to change my choice. Because even though this choice to not smoke and carry through and deliver that particular choice is a road less travelled I truely believe with my mind, heart and soul that not smoking is the best thing I can do for myself.
The embodyment of not smoking is to live and live healthy. I hope and wish and gladly come to this site because there are others on this road with me. I can get guidance, say what is going on or not, I can see inspiration, modelling and mentoring and I can truly map my course through the imagery and words that other here post.
AND yes there is always choice.
Thanks
Peace
