How many times have I crossed the desert of NML?
I don't have an answer to that question.
I do know that I have been traveling the trail for 8 years now.
There have been many things happen over those 8 years that could have taken me back to the first day.
Illness, loss of family, depression, and injuries.
Any of them could have ruined the journey.
Quititude, ( thanks to the people that coined that one), has kept me on my path.
I choose each and every day to stay smokefree.
I made a promise to the people I live with, TheOldGoat, and all of you here to never light another death stick.
I make the same promise to you all again today.
Be well and travel safely my friends.
Ol' Nic is always out there trying to trip you up.
Don't let him or his bunch ruin your quit.
Finish your journey across NML and join all those that have made the journey before you.
They are waiting to celebrate with you at the base of the mountain.
One step, and then another, will get you to where you want to be.
