The Smokers Poem

There was a man who liked to smoke; "I’ll quit some day", he used to joke.He took them with him where ever he went; and out of his wallet the money was spent.He needed them more, so more he would pay; just to get through the pressure of his day.Once he was home, it didn’t slow down; he needed a puff and searched all around.finding them on the table, he gave a deep sigh; relieved that his brain would soon be on high.Feeling able to handle things with peace; he went to lie down to relax and to ceasethinking about stuff that clouded his mind; drifting to sleep, putting the day behind.Then waking in the morning, fumble he did; looking for those cigs, with an open eye-lid.Finding them not, he yelled aloud; everyone could hear him, even those in a crowd.Then clutching his chest, he gave a loud wheeze; breathing his last, he fell down with a seize.When they found him, they said he was holding a lighter; his other hand held, an empty pack even tighter.What a sad end to his life,

Freedom After 40 Years, Nenejune's Quit Smoking Story

From quitsmoking.about.com/od/quitsmo ... nejune.htmNenejune's Quit Smoking StoryFreedom After 40 Years: My Quit StoryI doubt that my story will be much different than other quit smoking stories. As much as we are unique as individuals, I have found that as nicotine addicts, we are very much alike. If anyone new to quitting reads this, maybe they will see something of themselves and realize that they too can quit smoking.I started smoking at the tender age of 15. That would have been about 1968, and people smoked everywhere at that time. There were cigarette ads on TV, in magazines, and on billboards. Characters smoked on TV and in the movies.

Because I am not in recovery myself, my answer comes from years of counseling alcoholics/addicts and processing their answers along with my own professional insight.So, with that said...is relapse part of recovery? Yes and no depending on whom you are talking to. If one has relapsed, learned from their "slip" and embraced a stronger, more formidable recovery, then the answer is "yes". However, if one continues to relapse because they have not tethered a confident and secure change in their lifestyle, then relapse just becomes an excuse for buying more time before committing to sobriety. Hence, the answer is "no".I have befriended many alcoholics/addicts and a number of them have embraced their clean and
