Oh don't worry about me.

I'm sorry to report that that is not an option for me. I'm just hard wired to worry about people I like. I can't help it.

I have had my trials and tribulations to get through in this life. I'm a survivor. :)

In the end, none of us is a survivor in this phase of our lives. And smoking in this one probably will not matter in the next.

I love to smoke. When the day comes when I hate it, then and only then will I quit.

Unfortunately, most people who are hooked on it will never reach that stage until they are terminal from it or the quality of their lives is so poor that smoking becomes secondary to drawing the next breath. But I agree with you on one thing, you will never quit because someone else wants you to.

Thanks for your concern, though.

You are welcome, but like I said, I can't help myself. Maybe I'll pray for you to quit, unless that would piss you off. LOL

Wouldn't piss me off at all. But the good Lord knows me, and I, too, have prayed for a sign to help me stop. But.........He never sent one.

I went to a Priest once, and ask him about this issue. He told me "God doesn't worry about what goes into our bodies, but what comes out." I have been at peace with this issue every since.

Hey, you can pray for me if you want to. I can always use a few prayers.
