Golferman sermon time again boys and girls. Everyone has heard the phrase �Honesty Is The Best Policy�. But let�s face it, there are times when we have all told a white lie if not a complete, bald face lie. But in terms of our quits, how honest are we with ourselves and with others? I know of people who have claimed to be quit, yet continued to smoke, and post as if they were quit. I have known people who became closet smokers, trying to hide their addiction, while maintaining the fa�ade of being quit. Who are they fooling? Why think for one minute that you are getting away with something. You aren�t. You are only fooling yourself. There is no shame in failure when you put forth a true effort but come up short. So what? If you slip or relapse then find out what you did, seek a solution, and get quit again. [b][color=blue]�Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive�[/color] [color=black]� Sir Walter Scott[/color][/b] Quitting isn�t about deception. Smoking is about deception. We deceive ourselves into believing that what we are doing is OK. We deceive ourselves when we allow others to smoke around us in some mysterious belief that others have a �right� to pollute the air that all must breathe within a living area. Smoking is the big lie. The ultimate deception. We, as quitters, must always acknowledge that and never fear honesty in our quits. After the first of the year, a large number of people joined the site. The number is dwindling and that is unfortunate. Perhaps those who have lost their quits are embarrassed to come and post about it. They might think it�s easier to just fade away. Perhaps some have slipped and struggled privately, but posted that all is well. This is the one place you can come and let it all hang out folks. Talk to us. Be honest. [b][color=Purple]Be Strong.

Cuddles an important part of my reply to Joe's post included this which might have been lost in the dialog. [quote] But then that is just me; others do fall down and we owe it to them to help them get back up if their decision to quit smoking is still there. The pretenders and liars can go to hell. [/quote] You have definately indicated a desire to regroup and start over and I am behind you 100%. Duffis duffis's Quit Stats Since Sunday, February 13, 2005, I've been smoke-free for: 335 Days, 20 Hours, 32 Minutes, 58 Seconds. I have saved $1,407.00 by not smoking 10075 cigarettes.

Another great post Joe. I was thinking the other day how much our reasons for quitting can change as we progress in our quits. I know mine started out pure of purpose - to help my wife out with her quit. When she gave up and blew a 5 month quit on me, I at first said F it now I can get back to my smokes and forget this pain and suffering after all at my age smoking wasn't going to kill me. But then after 5 months on this site and meeting so many great people, my reasoning turned 180 degrees and I became very selfish and guarded of MY quit. I have become my own icon and there is no way in hell I could ever smoke again let alone come back here and say "I slipped...er......had a puff....smoked only two or three.........got drunk and woke up with a pack of smokes......my hormones exploded......my bf messed up my mind........my dog pi**ed on my new carpet and I ran down and got a pack......ect, ect, ect. But then that is just me; others do fall down and we owe it to them to help them get back up if their decision to quit smoking is still there. The pretenders and liars can go to hell. This site is here to aid, assist, help out, and support people who have made the decision to quit smoking. It goes without saying that it is going to be the hardest thing you will ever do, but it can and has been done often by very strong and also very weak willed people. I have ranted enough and I did not mean to ruin your post Joe but this is serious stuff. I will leave you with a quote that I remember from the 60's. [quote] "A man goes to knowledge as he goes to war: wide-awake, filled with fear, with respect, and with absolute assurance. Going to knowledge or going to war in any other manner is a mistke, and whoever makes it might never live to regret it." Carlos Castaneda [/quote] Duffis

Hi Joe, I feel ya there big guy. The shear fact of acknowledgement that honesty on this site is a given speaks volumes with the over whelming flow of emotions apprent to us genuine posters. To the damn: Really, you talkin to me about honesty...there is no fool me once anymore... Besides, you da fool in the end who lie,...so what do I care. I am at the very edge of one year smoke free, along with my compatriots the Unsmokeables...you can stick that in your pipe and smoke it...
