5:00 PM: I was thinking. "Is it possible that everyone, is addicted to something?" Regardless of its outcome in our lives, is there something that controls our freedom - or controls our drive?
Have we been turned into mindless zombies, just being lead by our nostrils to whatever it is we're attracted to, addicted to, or driven by?
Everything to numb our senses, and distract us, is at our finger tips these days.
The more I sit and analyze the way things are, the more appealing detaching from desire sounds to me.
I mean, LOOK at us. Does anyone have any will power to stop whatever it is that they're doing, that brings them comfort at the price of their health?
How in the HELL did we get here?!? At what point did it become okay, to drink a mini- bucket of soda?? At what point, did it become okay, to eat twice the portion of food we used to eat?? Do we HAVE to SuperSize everything??
My Grandma has been known to say that, "Every generation gets weaker and wiser." I believe her for the simple fact that, it appears that we have been made weak by the virtue of the way we live. Think about it, when is the last time you got up, to turn the channel on the TV? Not in the last fifteen years, right?
I'm gonna stop because I'm starting to rant and rave. I said I would remain cool. I'm a little antsy and prickly. I purposefully kept quiet and to myself today. This is my fight. No one else's. No one deserves the short end of this stick. I will be mindful of how I speak to people today. I will be conscious of my body language. I will be cognizant of my breathing.
I wonder is this the Spazz Out Phase of the Quit. I don't remember reading about that part. HA!!!!
There is something definately different about this Quit. I haven't put my finger on it, but there is something about it that just feels different. Maybe it will come to me later. Much later.
Peace & Smokelessness.
Yours in SmokeFreeNess
