Today is the first day of the rest of my life, as a non smoker. I have gone back on the patches and I know I can do this! Cigarettes do not make me or my life better in any way, what they do is destroy my body, my health and my mind and they chain me to a toxic, all consuming addiction. I want to be free of this addiction, I want to breathe in life and I want to live. So one day at time I can do this and as I have just learnt , no matter what I do not pick up a cigarette. Cigarettes have no value to my life or anyone's.
