I wanted to share this poem with all of you. I shared this with my quit buddies early on in our quits....Lynn, you'll probably remember it! Anyhow, whenever I'd get down in the dumps or stressed out and couldn't smoke, I'd sit down and read this.......

DON'T QUIT---

WHEN THINGS GO WRONG, AS THEY SOMETIMES WILL,

WHEN THE ROAD YOU'RE TRUDGING SEEMS ALL UPHILL,

WHEN THE FUNDS ARE LOW AND THE DEBTS ARE HIGH,

AND YOU WANT TO SMILE BUT YOU HAVE TO SIGH,

WHEN CARE IS PRESSING YOU DOWN A BIT,

REST IF YOU MUST, BUT DON'T QUIT.

LIFE IS ODD WITH ITS TWISTS AND TURNS,

AS EVERY ONE OF US SOMETIMES LEARNS,

AND MANY A FAILURE TURNS ABOUT,

WHEN HE MIGHT HAVE WON HAD HE STUCK IT OUT;

DON'T GIVE UP THOUGH THE PACE SEEMS SLOW,

YOU MAY SUCCEED WITH ANOTHER BLOW,


SUCCESS IS FAILURE TURNED INSIDE OUT,

THE SILVER TINT OF THE CLOUDS OF DOUBT,

AND YOU NEVER CAN TELL HOW CLOSE YOU ARE,

IT MAY BE NEAR WHEN IT SEEMS SO FAR,

SO STICK TO THE FIGHT WHEN YOU'RE HARDEST HIT,

IT'S WHEN THINGS SEEM WORSE THAT YOU MUST NOT QUIT....

ANON


Thank you all for your continued support to me,
