[B]Only as high as I reach can I grow, only as far as I seek can I go, only as deep as I look can I see, only as much as I dream can I be.�[/b] Author Unknown. I just hope I never stop reaching, seeking, looking or dreaming again. A few months ago, I dreamed of being a different person. Today I am a different person. While it is difficult, scary, and frustrating at times, the new me is constantly in development these days. I just pray for the courage to continue this growth. No smoking allowed.

[B]But today is ours to live Its treasures now to use, And it can be our best day We alone can choose.[/b] � Helen Gleason I see a lot of people struggling today and so I thought maybe this inspiration might help. The first few days are the worse in the quit and after that some days are better than others. Who knows what brings on the junkie thinking. What is important is that we choose to ignore the junkie in us and move forward because we are fighting for our lives. [B]Today is ours to live[/b] � Smoke Free [B]Its treasures now to use[/b] � the treasure of life instead of slow death caused by smoking [B]And it can be our best day[/b] � because we are free from the enslavement of smoking [B]We alone can choose[/b] � no one can do it for us. Each day, even each hour, we are creating our own destiny. The thoughts we pay attention to are the ones that control us. Let us all remain in control of ourselves and refuse to turn that control back over to the smoking addict that resides in each and every one of us. I write this today, just as much for myself as for the others here. Everyday smoke free is a good day.
