I had been a smoker since I entered college. For more than 30 years nothing worked on me about methods of quitting. There’s the so called cold turkey with symptoms of withdrawal like feeling cold and sweaty with drying mouth. It was no use to quit so I continued smoking until that fateful day of June 29, 2007.
I visited my father who had a cataract operation. He was doing fine and we talked. After sometime I went back to my car and smoked. After a few inhalations of smoke I felt queasy in my stomach that later on I had difficulty in breathing. For fear that I was having a heart attack I talked to God. It might sound funny but I promised God that if I get well I will stop smoking. That night I felt better and I kept my promise to God. Since that day I have not smoked cigarette anymore.
