I have a pack in my hand.

Let's see 1,2,3,4,5...11 sticks a-staring at me.
Winston "naturally smooth". Class A cigarettes...makes me wonder what the other classes are.

Man it's been some time since I held a pack in my hand.

Nice lettering on the side: Smoking Causes Lung Cancer, Heart Disease, Emphysema and May Complicate Pregnacy.

Makes me crave it even more...yeah right.

Co-worker left a pack in the back seat of my car.

How many of our quitters would cave in and puff away if they found a pack in their hands? And yet, I feel nothing. Let me repeat this: I feel NOTHING!

I could easily crush these and toss away. But instead I will return these to their owner when I see her on Monday. Sure, one of these bad-boys might be the one that instills cancer. But that is not my choice...that is the choice of every smoker with every puff.
(I will not be the intolerant non-smoker.)
I cannot stop a suicidal person...only delay something a determined mind will see thru.
How special it would be for that same determination to be used to keep oneself healthy and free of personal slavery. Everyone must quit for themselves 1st!

Cigarettes will be around us, but WE MUST SAY NO TO THEM OR WE HAVEN'T QUIT AT ALL.

I go away for a weekend and saw this title, you scared me for a moment.

You are right we will fight this addiction every day of our lives but fight it we must in order to survive.

You had me worried too, Don. I figured not you of all people! Shame on me for having so little faith. You've lived up to all my high expectations. Thank you!!!

The real shame on me is that I delivered them to a co-worker I thought they belonged to...but instead has kept her quit since Sept.
Talk about being unintentionally mean!

They are now with their rightful owner.
