Someone posted this here last year about the same time I quit, it really helped me stay quit, I thought now might be a good time to post it again............. Quitting Smoking is Easy!! � � � Easier than hearing your doctor say, "I'm sorry . . ." � � � Easier than breathing through tubes up your nose. � � � Easier than having a Tracheotomy. � � � Easier than your child seeing you die from cancer. � � � Easier than losing a friend . . . or a friend losing you. � � � Easier than laying in the hospital having radiation treatment. � � � Easier than laying in the hospital wishing you could feel the sun. � � � Easier than listening to your loved ones crying outside your hospital room. � � � Easier than preparing for your funeral because the cancer has gone so far. � � � Easier than picking out your favorite songs for your funeral. � � � Easier than trying to say the right words because they will be your last. � � � Easier than not seeing your child's face because of blindness. � � � Easier than looking out the window knowing you can't go there anymore. � � � Easier than changing your retirement plans. � � � Easier than imagining your spouse being alone. � � � Easier than going through your photo album with tears. � � � Easier than telling your child you are dying young because you smoked. � � � Easier than realizing smoking was more important to you than your life. Feel free to add any you may have................

Hey Hummy, how did you miss this one, I thought you had them all lol. Yes it is a great one, I read it early in my quit and printed it out, I just wish I remembered who posted it first so I could give them credit. Its one that we can all relate to in one way or another.
