Well, in a strange way, I indeed had a choice in my approach to my quit, I could of thought it's terrible, it's torrid, it's mind blowing, it's to much, I can't do it...... Etc

But  those waves of emotion we describe as a crave, I have indeed just  let go over my head, in the knowing that these will settle down,  the longer my quit progresses..

And while , of course at times I do feel at a loss, it's not a loss, it's a advantage knowing my body is thanking me every day I stay quit, my mind is adjusting too. 

That said, I will always need the resolve of this most magical forum, in my quest to stay nicotine free,

My choice is not to smoke, so I,m not. Well for today at least.

For tomorrow is new, will hit it head on with all the vigour of today.

Our choices in life define us as a individual, so for me, my choice is not to smoke, no matter what waters lay ahead rough, or calm, I will conquer this. I must. As with every thing in life, some things take more time than others., so how ever long it takes. I,m here for the long haul.
