You’re not alone. 411,000+ real posts from people who showed up for each other. Read a thread, share a win, leave a tip - your words could be the nudge someone needs today.
All of your points were taken and I agree with you on a lot of it. Obviously with a year under your belt you know something, right? I have always been the type of person to be empathetic and this IS a hard addiction to beat. Hell, I failed a few times before this, it happens to the best of us! I just can't bring myself to be so blunt, as you!
I HATE HATE HATE Jeff Gordon! And not a fan of little E either. Haha!

I get what your saying but I am a bit offended by your willingness to call names. I don't feel that I am uncommited,undecided or unsure. I know you were not directing that at me per-se but I feel like since I am new that your post had to do with me. Just for the record, I am not on the fence...so maybe you weren't talking about me. I dunno, your post just strikes me as rude and that is okay, your entitled to your thoughts, as am I!

Mr. Ed & all! I am just sensitive and I always have been, its my nature. Like its GM's nature to be blunt. I'm having another bad day

GM - nothing like telling it like it T...is
It's always interesting to me how such a simple, black and white message (post) can reach out so deeply and connect w/those who feel or think they don't need to hear that message :( Kind of like having an organic reaction (involuntary response) and not being willing to say 'ouch' ...or even acknowledge the message.
:) Thanks Joe, well done!

Good Morning golferman,
I don�t Post a lot, I �m more of a sit back and read girl. I�m now into my quit 55 days. I have had big bumps and little bumps in the road along the way but for the most part, if I�m honest with myself it really has not been that bad. But when times get bad, it is Post like this one that KEEP me on track. I look at my 5 year old son and I�m 42, and there is no way a STUPID CIGARETTE is going to take his mother from him at a young age!
Golferman, THANK YOU for your wisdom, I know there is a lot of LOVE behind every one of your words!

Ah nothing like getting yelled at by an elder (Just Kidding). ;p Your posts are always amesome and speak much truth. I am one of the ones you are refering to and I am not offended but glad that you took the time to give us a famous GF lecture.. But I do wish I could click my heels together 3 times and then be quit. Wouldn't that be nice!! :p
Thanks Joe et All. I have posted an alternate post in Avoiding Relapse.
