I realized today, when I was commenting on a post from Jake, that perhaps I've managed to get past a major hurdle. I walked past my several weeks of really NEEDING a smoke, without actually having one.

Am I yet a "happy quitter"? Hell no---------but I have not smoked.

Coming up out of the deep recesses of my brain, I told Jake that quitting could be a BIG DEAL or, it could be a big deal. It all depends what your mind tells you, and what you buy into.

Gradually I have come to realize that I've been buying into the ADDICTION and my EGO both of which were trying their damndest to pull me back into feeding the addiction. ADDICTION works very hard at making everything a BIG DEAL. IT tells me how badly I NEED a cigarette. How much i WANT a cigarette. How much I ENJOY smoking. While all of that may be true-------they do NOT have to be in all caps! LOL

I can need a cigarrette, want a cigarette, enjoy smoking and none of them need to be screaming in my brain.

I can manage small letters...

Thanks

Hugs & Blessings
