Why do so many put the decision to Quit so later in life? How is it that one packet of smokes is purchased almost daily? I truly respect you guys who have given up, found the freedom and no longer want a single puff. But unfortunately, there would be a majority of smokers always having some excuse to continue to smoke.

Stay focused and strong......there is no good reason to keep smoking x
