Smoking Decreased My Life By Six Years!!!!


I used to be a big time closet cigarette smoker.... If no one saw me it did not count, right? I was twelve years old when I had my first smoke and graduated to being a full fledged smoker by the time I was 15 years old and a sophomore in high school. In my college party days - forget about it... I was stinky awful... but I thought I was cool... As I got older and the affects of smoking started to take its toll on my body - coughing, stained teeth, and gosh I just stunk.. of course I did not smell me... after I quit, I then realized that I was not fooling anyone by hiding my gross habit... When I turned 40 and discovered I had high blood pressure - I got on my knees and prayed for God to take this addiction away from me. I got up threw a new pack of cigarettes in the trash... and never smoked again - never wanted too... That was almost 4 years ago...

I was reading an article this morning about the lasting affects that smoking leaves... I learned that my life expectancy has been decreased almost six (6) years... That's awful.... If you are a smoker or you were a smoker go to this web site to check it out - very interesting.... How Does Smoking Affect Your Life Span

Don't lose another day!!! Stop Smoking Today!!!

Show Your Love - Stop Smoking Today




Kelly's Idea Number 471

Quit Smoking Today - if not for you... for your loved ones.... My dad died because he smoked.. I look at my husband's dad Darrell who is one year older than my dad and Darrell is full of life... He golfs often, he plays often, he travels often, and he is living....daily.

I quit smoking three years ago... I went to the dentist for oral surgery and my blood pressure was 200/110 and I was only 40 years old... I came home, got on my knees and prayed for God to take away my want of tobacco, and threw my full pack in trash.... and never looked back.. I used to smoke two packs a day since high school! My mom quit smoking after over fifty years and she looks very good today and her cough is GONE!

Listen to the video above. The song is a very powerful story of a man and his habits... and while lying on his deathbed he is full of regret....

Show someone you love them TODAY... Throw the pack away and Live.... and if you don't smoke and there is someone you love that does.... send them this post... show your loved one - They are loved..
