thanks @roadog1aj
I had my first cigarette at 11 with some girls who would have been labeled as "bad influences" by most mothers... Smoking is the only "vice" I've never truly been able to give up on... It is within my power to quit for good, but even quitting almost 4 years... Every time I went into a convenient store and seen all the packs behind the counter.. I felt like a recovering alcoholic would feel stopping cause they needed gas at a store and walking in to pay with beer in the store coolers for sale.. I don't hate cigarettes, but I know I don't need them.. I need to hate them... Thanks y'all. Hope to meet you all soon as well.
I quit cold turkey 20 years ago last month after my first triple bypass surgery, which lasted 16 years and a day. They told me the average bypass lasted 14 years. I am now on my second triple bypass of which one surgeon would not even try, so I went to another surgeon. Life is good
