2015, a year without smoking

Although I quit smoking on April 25th, 2014, this past year has been the one in which I consolidated this great achievement: 


2015, a year without smoking


This 2016 will include the second anniversary and, just like when I did for the first one, I will write about it.


Life continues to improve and feel better, even though my subconscious still portrays me smoking in some of my dreams. I actually like that this happens sometimes, because it acts as a reminder that it is wrong to cheat. Plus the feeling of relief is enormous when one realizes that it was only a dream.

In addition, some people ask me: 'Don't you ever do just one? Not even on special occasions, parties, when being very drunk..?'

My answer is honest, simple and clear: NO!

If I am claiming that I gave up smoking, this means that I am not doing it anymore. In fact, I already wrote that I am not giving my power to a substance that will do its best to control me from minute one.
Indeed, I have no interest at all on being able to control that substance, since I believe it is not possible. That is only an illusion. The true story is that tobacco is always controlling you; unless you decide to break the pattern, and the only way is to quit forever. That means having no more cigarettes: not even one!
