My First Anniversary of a Life of Freedom!

As I reflect on this past year, if I had only one word to describe what quitting smoking has given me other than the obvious health benefits, it would be FREEDOM! 

The addict brain in me has lost and my logical, freedom loving brain has won! Thank you all for your support and help in teaching me how to quit successfully.  I once believed smoking made me feel better, calmed me, but it was all a lie I'd told myself because I feared failure if I decided to quit.  I figured I'd be a massive failure at quitting, so why even try?  Well, I took Dale's 130 day challenge and here I am today, one year later, a QUITTER for life! 

Let us all continue moving forward on this journey of self discovery, understanding there is never a good reason to smoke, as that would mean giving up a life of wonderful freedom for one of dependence on smoking. Thank you all who have been on this journey with me.  Let us continue what we've started here on EX!
