A Goodbye to Smoking

Smoking often becomes a love/hate relationship over time. Quitting tobacco can feel like we've left a long-time companion behind, and these writings reflect that.

The Seduction

From Leslie:

"At the beginning, I only pretended to like you. You see, I wanted so badly to fit in, to belong. And you were so popular, so glamourous. I hung out with you now and then just to be 'cool' by association. I was such an awkward girl, and it seemed that hanging out with you made me look more interesting, a little edgy."
