I have said this to myself everyday so far! Today when I was in the grocery store line, there was a man buying 2 cartons of cigarettes and I thought I don't need to spend that much money on something that goes up in smoke anyway. I was also thinking about not wanting ever to go through this again. I believe quitting has been the most difficult thing I have had to do in my entire life. Your right too about friends and family making a big deal out of my quitting but I am glad they have because it has gotten me through some really rough spots.
