I'm waiting for a grocery delivery on this viral evening. Shutters closed but, door open, windows open. I smell satsuma blossoms from my little tree. It is beautifully quiet and perfectly warm. Nobody is on the street. No drone of air conditioners. I've heard a train whistle and slight hum of a barge's generator passing up river, the occasional car, some playing music.

Only need extinguishers

Goin' out to that train man of ours, @BAT

We are in particularly stressful times. Smoking/vaping exacerbates stress levels. When you quit, your stress levels will abate. A smoker's body under stress becomes acidic and dumps nicotine putting you into withdrawal. This is why I used to smoke furiously when under stress, I couldn't diminish the stress of the withdrawal. Quitting stops all that. Sure, you still have stress but, not stress compounded with withdrawal and the skills you learn in quitting will help you deal with normal stress. Deep breathing, meditation, exercise... Here is a video and resources, Smoking Does Not Help You Overcome Stress Take care of yourselves. Protect your quits and if you smoke, quit !
