Thanks for posting this today. It is exactly what I wanted to hear.
I had a terrible craving today, but recognized exactly what it really was........just a desire for the familiar ability to feel like something external made me feel better.
I would never have gotten here....to where I recognize the difference between a fantasy of what I used to think cigarettes did for me.....to the truth that I have lived in a fantasy that isn't real, doesn't really exist except the value I gave it.................to the now, without knowing that I had given that nicotine power over me. And, now, the most important thing about my quit, is to finally have power where it ought to be........my inner guidance. And someone pleading with me not to quit, even myself, doesn't really make a diddly squat of difference when I have this absolutely convincing knowing there's no validity in all of the "thoughts" in my mind that used to seem real to me in the past.
I made up my mind I'm through playing games with my mind! And I AM!
