How to Quit Smoking
We are all so used to playing out some definite parts that others have
given us that we have learned to think of ourselves in categories. It
is neither good nor bad that we are labeled first by our relationship
to our family, we are all daughters, or /and mothers, wives, aunts,
uncles, sons, husbands, grandsons and so on and so forth; and second we
are labeled by our relationship to work, whatever it is. From very
early in life we learn to hide or to curb those skills or desires that
do not seem to fit in with what is expected of us. This way we may end
up feeling uneasy and desiring to change something. Someone may start
smoking as soon as he or she becomes an independent person,
independent from parents, and some time later it becomes obvious that
such self-expression does not work. |
