Ready - Day 1644

I saw some conversations in many threads today that would cause some people great anxiety.  I saw some people post with great fire in their belly about things that they are passionate about.  I saw some people post from the hip.  I saw some people post after reflecting upon what was posted and contemplating the bigger picture.  I saw some people accuse others of doing wrong.  I saw responses to accusations.  I saw some people become so frustrated that they expressed their desire to leave because they had reached their limit.  I saw some people reach out to those that were frustrated and attempt to focus them on what is really important.  I saw some people push others to get a response.  I saw some people make demands.  I saw lots of people get involved in an ongoing debate regarding an ongoing situtation after observing for several days and they felt the need to speak on the issue.  I saw many things today.

Above all of this,

I saw a bunch of quitters today.

Makes Ready proud to be apart of it all.  If not for this place of disfunctional addicts, I would not be quit today.  Thank You, All of you
Hell yeah!

This place is amazing! It saved my sorry ass too!

Thank you sir!
I see you Ready....I see you.

Well put sir, well put!

Cuts Ready.

Checked messages... None. No missed calls.

Kinda cryptic.

Ready...you sir, are my hero. Everyday. All day. You and your boys at about 1600 saved me by showing up. I don't always say thanks as much as I should.

Thanks for taking up the challenge. Thanks for doing it daily. Thanks for paying it forward. Thanks for being rigid on the things that require it and being smart enough to be soft on the things that that don't.

You will always make a difference. The seeds you planted bear fruit day after day, month after month. We could play 2 degrees of separation for any quitter since your Day 1 and connect them directly to your efforts.

One day I'll shake your hand, pat you on the ass, and say Thanks in person. Until then, know your friendship is cherished.

My hero.

Damn. I should check my intro more often.

It is a web of freedom Gentlmen.

It's a strong web here.

Because of folks like you, I will not fail.

Period.

The problem is not the problem.  The problem is your attitude about the problem.  Do you understand?

If its too much trouble to post roll call, you could always fuck off.

"CLOSE THE DOOR. In my opinion, it?s the single most important step in your final quit. There is one moment, THE moment, when you finally let go and surrender to the quit. After that moment, no temptation will be great enough, no lie persuasive enough to make you commit suicide by using tobacco."
