I Quit !!!!

Belief in one's self will help you conquer all your demons and dreams, but beware of belief in others as they may in all eventuality let you down.

All right, why with did i start of with the "Belief" gyan ....coz today i'm gonna quit smoking. It's been 7 years now, since i let the smoke take over my life, and the love affair with my cigarette has continued ever since. I tried to quit several times but never had the courage to follow through with it.

It's been the one constant in my life, through my good times and the bad, during the heartbreaks and the triumphs. So why the sudden change of mind to bid adieu to my long time faithful companion. Enough is known about the dangers of smoking; Lung cancer, Lung disease , Heart attack, Heart disease, Hypertension, Stroke, Oral cancer, Bladder cancer, Pancreatic cancer, Cervical cancer. Not scared yet, well google these images and you'll know what i mean.

Well simple, coz i dont want to die a miserable death, which in today's day and age in all probability may happen. But at least 10 years from now, I don't need to be in some hospital getting a biopsy done on my lungs and find out that I have Stage whichever of cancer which wont be treatable.

Tried a few times before, but all in vain. So how do i resist the urge this time around. Well, its simple, jus say no...yea say "NO", " YES I SAID IT JUST SAY NO".

Life at most times is black and white, we complicate things by turning it grey. SO JUST A SIMPLE NO in this instance is all that's needed.

So, its Feb 19th today and has been four days now, since i quit and i plan to keep it that way.

Theres still a long way to go baby, but i shall get through this. Its like Jagger said " You cant always get what you want, but if you try some times, u just might find you get what you need"
