Outpouring of Support

I am sitting here crying. I had been surprise by the support I have received here. But today, an hour ago, I posted in my Status on Facebook

"I hope I do not jinx myself by telling everyone this but after 44 years 9 months of smoking (35 years at 50 cigs a day) I have now been smoke free for 25 days. Yay me.

NOPE Not one Puff ever."

Well, I have to tell you the outpouring of support has been unbelievable. Family, friends, and Facebook friends all telling me why it is so important to quit and get healthy, both for our joint futures together, and for my own future.

I do not think I have ever believed how valuable others consider me.

Yup, sitting here crying, but I have to tell you all, it truly is a good cry.

Happy smoke free days to all. Hugs, K

Oh kaelie, it was so good to read your post just now! Huge congratulations on 25 days quit after so many years, it is tremendous!

And also finding out how much you are loved and valued, as you always have been. I think smoking is a very internalising thing, just us, the fag, all looking in instead of out, in our own heads too much, and if we can throw the fags away and look out and up we could see better all the good things and people around us. And you've put it out there and let all those people in :) Tears of appreciation and finding out just how wonderful you are :)

Stay strong, and have a great day. Love and hugs xxx
