I have always remembered this day and I usually do something to celebrate. Quitting smoking is an accomplishment and I am proud of it. Also, since that date too a lot of changes have occured in my life, so I use this date as sort of a marker.. Some directly related to no longer smoking, others more about growing up and continuous journey as I pass through the chapters of my life.
So this November 6th marks 5-years since I quit smoking.
Since then, I've become a fish-only vegetarian. I have gotten married. I have left LA and moved to North Carolina. Became an avid runner. Gotten back on the soccer field and started regularly playing for multiple teams. Started running distance. Bought a beach house. Changed employers 3 times and I have even moved into a different profession.
This November 6th, at 12:41am, my son was born.
It's been quite the journey so far.
