Nature Day

Today I had a nature day. I went out and photographed a few clovers and dandelions, then the trees that were in bloom before and are in leaf now. Then I washed my leather jacket (cats had peed on it when I first moved into my parents' house) now that I have the special leather soaps and conditioners. Found out leather dries really slowly. So I played in the plants. Ran my hands over the tops of the grass, through some soft weeds, and through some feathery ones. Thought of smoking once in the morning, but so far that's it. I'm one month two weeks into my quit, and I feel great. I didn't go out of the house much when I was smoking, and when I did, I wanted to be back home getting a smoke. It really feels my days were cut shorter when I was smoking. Now I'm still trying to figure out what to do with my time.

You will find wonderful things to do with your time, I have no doubt. A day in nature sounds like the prefect antidote to spare time, it always wipes time away :)  One day you'll be whining to someone in a general conversation about how little time you have and you'll stop and smile for a second because you will remember you have more then you've ever had :)

 

I totally relate to wanting to get out and do stuff versus the smoker who wants to just be in a safe place to enable smoking. Trust this journey even if it wobbles from time to time. You are doing perfectly and you will soon have a very full and happier life. xx

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
