Though my quit is young, I can already relate with the fact that when I am smoke free, it is an amazing feeling to be able to do as I want, go where I want, come and go as I please without some addiction controlling me every step of the way. I already feel so much more freedom only 10 days in and these are thoughts I keep as constant reminders of where I came from and the misery I am escaping by committing to being smoke free!

It sure was a struggle to get here...

and I cannot tell you exactly when I *arrived*.
Perhaps it was when I started to notice the crave waves of mine were all but dead.
Or perhaps a year or two back when I noticed some folks scurrying around
to find a place to smoke at a busy airport after just getting in.
Or the poor sods who stand out in 25 below zero weather having to have
that smoke and I stand inside with hot cup of coffee gazing out the warm
window.
All I know is that it dawned on me at some point along the Way that
since I Quit Smoking, I come and go as I please, where I please, as I
please; freed of all those chains , shackles and fetters from that
Filthy Dungeon of Addiction I rotted in for 40 too long years.
These are just some of the Fruits of a Quit, my friends~~
Relish them Daily!!!

This is an account of my journey, detailing the moments of a life free from nicotine and alcohol. I've found it helpful to document the ideas and events along the way to always remember where I came from and where I am heading. This will help me stay in the present moment and free from active addiction. I also hope that this blog can be used to inspire and benefit those who are also seeking refuge from their addictions.
