I appreciate the kind message about my anniversary.
I do have to share with everyone that I honestly let the anniversary go by without noticing. (Although I still do mark each June 6 with fondness!)
I hope to encourage all those who are looking to quit. My story is about the same as everyone else's "no way can I quit."
But, here I am 7 1/2 years later - smoke free! I'm now living halfway round the world in Juba, South Sudan. I NEVER would have made it to this point as a smoker.
Juba's pretty bad with boredom, stress, etc. All the things that make up life in a post-conflict third world country. Cigarettes are cheap and readily available. But, I thank God everyday I don't smoke!
In fact, I purchased a nice, shiney no smoking sign for our new guesthouse. I hung it on Monday - without even knowing it was my anniversary - how ironic is that!?!?!?!
Hope everyone has a great, smoke free day! |
