Boy things are sure looking different around here , lots of new faces too . 

For those of you who don't know me my name is Donna aka sparky , and I quit smoking 854 days ago . 

I was a smoker for 40+ years , I was the person who " loved" smoking . And honestly never thought I would quit . Funny , how messed up my thinking was . 

Cigarette addiction is difficult to overcome because it's also a habit , it becomes so much a part of every part of you and what you do . But it doesn't have to  be that way , you can quit smoking . Yes you can . The only thing standing in the way of your freedom is you . 

You have to stay committed. You have to lose your fear , if you keep holding on to the idea that you can't live your life without a cigarette , you well fail . If you keep holding on to the thought that this is too hard , you well fail   And if you hold on to some ridiculous resentment .( I have to quit and I don't want to , boo f ing who . ) You well probably fail . 

Quitting smoking is a gift of life and freedom you give to yourself , please if you are just starting on this quit journey , stay committed , yes you well have some rough days and you may want to go back to old, habits , but that's why you are here so we can help you get past that moment. .
