Saw this on Facebook this morning from one of my daughters: I love you to the moon alice! I'm proud of you quitting smoking this far! Love you mom you are a freaking rock star or Shooting star (name that tune) to me!!!!
Always remember you are doing this for your health, not only for yourself; but also for your loved ones. Please protect your quit. If you need to, carry a picture of the most precious ones in your life in your pocket. When the urge hits, pull it out. It helps to remind ourselves what the purpose is. I actually fulfilled my mother's wish. I always mourned my mother's passing on Good Friday 22 years ago by smoking heavily and drinking. When she was alive, she begged me to stop, wished I would stop smoking. I never did. This year I'm sure she smiled down on me finally being free of cigarettes and not drinking any longer. She is my inspiration along with my family.
I know each and every one of you have a loved one in their lives that mean the world to them, be it a friend, significant other, husband, daughter, son, granddaughter, grandson or even grandparents. Find a picture or a keepsake and have it with you at all times. grab that for your strength through the rough times. There is a reason why.................
