I am not John Quiñones......

Mindful, I'm no philanthropist....

It happened at a WaWa...of course..

Get back in my car...with coffee. Sitting there adjusting it's safety, for I tend to slosh...stuff.

" Oh look! A shiny thing"!!!

I noticed this kinda older dude...reach in to this... cigarette... receptacle?

He was butt hunting. 😮

I smoke weed so I judge not cig hitters..

But dude!

So I got his attention....gave him 10$

I know first hand that addiction hears no reason.

What would you do?

Thank you for not judging. I am on the road to quitting myself but it’s a nightmare even with patches.

@tobynshorty Good luck.

@tobynshorty I've got the patches too, about a month and a half ago, from my doc. Just haven't gotten the will power to use them yet.

@tobynshorty One of the things I learned is that smoking can be as much a oral fixation as a nicotine addiction. I kept a box of Tootsie Roll Pops at work and home.

@tobynshorty Only thing I judge are shoes on other women's feet..lol.

Nicotine is as rough to kick as Heroin I've heard more than once.

My father quit after 25 years. Every childhood pic with him...a cigarette.

Patches...gum... candy maybe...?

Best thing just don't give up. And don't hate when you slip.

I have faith in you. 🙏🩷

@tobynshorty long story but they gave me the wrong patches at the drug store. I will get everything right and I will quit.
