I have decided to abdicate smoking. I'm not trying to be a prude or a "holier-than-thou" but I figured I ought to change some things in myself. I may have been a little damaged after all that I have been through. I'm pretty gullible in case you didn't know. Anyway, I'm doing it one day at a time. But there are days that I still feel like reaching for my friend's pack, lighting it, and blow smoke till the cows come back. I guess the best motivation I can ever have is another person.

Life is changed, not taken away.
