Eight is Great....

Greetings, Beloveds - 

October 27, 2019 marked eight years smoke and nicotine free.

I am extremely humbled and thankful to the God of my understanding for the needed grace to be able to be free of smoking and nicotine.

My prayer for anyone who is reading this, who also wishes to quit, is that you too can find the needed peace and grace to quit.

Listen, it can be done. I'm not gonna sugar coat it and say that it's easy. All I will say is that it will be worth it.

If you want to laugh, go to the beginning of the blog and check out the first year of my quit. It might make you laugh, it might make you cry - but something, will happen. If nothing else, it will give you something to think about.

Remember, you CAN quit.

YOU CAN WIN. 

Don't know how? Go back to the beginning of the blog when you're ready to quit and just read.

You are awesome and if you would like to QUIT, you can and you WILL. 

Until Next Time, Stay Strong Beloveds

Hugs, Love, and Healing Energy to the World
(For Those Who Are Open to Receive It.)

Hey, Beloveds - 

I pray all is well or better for everyone who still reads the blog. 

Thank you so much if this is you and Welcome to those who may have just joined the journey.

Back in June I blogged about vaping. We now see that what I shared was unfortunately, more than true.

People are dying.

Beloveds, smoking is something that we don't have to do. It's something that we chose to do. The reason why I say that smoking is not something that we have to do, is that it wasn't a requirement to keep us alive after we were born. We need nurturing, love, clean food, clean air, and clean water. 

Moving from one smoking habit to another does not help us to be smoke free and nicotine free. 

Beloveds, don't fall of the okie doke. There are industries that are waiting to reel you in like a fish with bait in order to get you hooked. These companies don't care if you get sick or die from smoking or vaping. All they care about are their profits. 

Since cigarettes have now been frowned upon and folks who still smoke made out to be social pariahs, the next thing to do is to find something that isn't looked at like the plague.

Enter vaping.

Look at how it was marketed? It was considered to be cool and it was considered to be more socially acceptable and better than smoking.

Beloveds, I will say it again.

"VAPING IS NOT BETTER THAN SMOKING."

Please don't get caught up in the bullsh*t. These companies are relying on you being weak, stressed out, and looking for a way out. Don't give them the satisfaction.

YOU CAN QUIT. YOU CAN WIN. 

Don't know how? Go back to the beginning of the blog when you're ready to quit and just read.

You are awesome and if you would like to QUIT, you can and you WILL. 

Until Next Time, Stay Strong Beloveds

Nobody's Fool

I pray with all my being that everyone who has been following this blog has been well.

I hope that your journey to being smokeless has been uneventful and fun.

I just wanted to come on and talk about an AD campaign that is really pissing me off.
\
It's for this vaping thing called JUUL (and you can add any other vaping tool, as well).

While they post a huge sign on the video that says that the device contains nicotine, the way commercial is marketed, just pulls my chain.

The way the actors communicate the story, is as if vaping is better than smoking.

"She/He made the switch." Switch from what? Jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire? From bad to worse?

Don't be anybody's fool, My Beloveds. Please hear me when I say to you that;

"VAPING IS NOT BETTER THAN SMOKING!"

These commercials are very crafty the way they present the product. These products still contain nicotine. Nicotine is the substance that has you hooked. 

Beloveds, I know that it's hard in the very beginning to QUIT. Quitting in the beginning feels insurmountable. It feels like you're about to step off a ledge. But you know what? I am living proof that you can get passed it. 

If you're new to your QUIT journey, go back to the very beginning of this blog and follow my posts. 

It's not easy, but it is worth it.

Until Next Time, Stay Strong Beloveds
