Dear s1ngal,
I know how you are so I’ll drop the pleasantries and get straight to the point.
Why have you taken up smoking… again? You said it was only for 24 hours almost 240 hours earlier. When I reminded you [to this day] that you’re still smoking, you smile and wave me off. NO. Enough’s enough.
Is this some kind of a relapse? Two years back, you went cold turkey after 9 – N.I.N.E. – years with that thing. Those two of your most-difficult years you were clean. And this is what I get… a relapse??? NOW???
You’re old [read: matured – no need to frown] enough to know what it can do to your health. Look at your skin, it’s beginning to show liver spots. Stressed? Puh-leez, who’re you kidding? If you’re stressed, go chop some wood or mope the house the way you used to when you were stressed.
Also, don’t give me *quitting is easy* BS. Anyway, enough of but-I’m-so-stressed-I-need-to-smoke excuses. Get over it. I know you can quit this thing because guess what, YOU HAVE ALREADY done it before, especially when no one thought you could, not even me.
Okay, gotta run now. But next time I catch you off guard, I want to catch you off guard without that little cigarette in your hand.
Take care, lotsa love xoxoxo
Ah yes. I have quit & restarted so many times. This last time I quit was in May — it’s easy until that one moment when its not.
Wow! So well said. It IS always easy INDEED to sleep with a resolve & wake up and weaken :sighs:
BUT I’m quitting, I’m motivated enough 🙂
I quit permanently after the 942nd time. Clean 8 years 14 days. But you don’t get chips for non-smoking…
Thanx for the motivation!!!
