RESPONSIBILITY ... Smoking is a decision people make -- it is never the "fault" of external circumstances. Although I often smoked in response to external "triggers," each cigarette I lit was a decision for which I am responsible. The trigger was never the cause of my smoking--it was just the moment I made the choice to smoke. The source of my actions was the decision I made. There is no situation, stress, or craving which can make me smoke. I am capable of maintaining my abstinence no matter what is happening inside me or around me. Nothing can make me smoke except me. |
