______________________________________________
Beginning immediately Anniversary Pins will be sent to all
Quit Smoking Achievers who wish to participate!
As of September 1, 2010 James aka Bubba will be presenting an anniversary pin to every quit smoking achiever who joins the Freedom Village Forum Achiever's List.
Here is how it works:
1. You agree to confirm or update your quit smoking anniversary on a yearly basis or your name will be dropped from our list until we hear from you. A profile on the Achiever's List will not be created for you with your personal acknowledgement to James Davis through email and you will not be eligible for a pin unless you send your mailing address directly to Mr. Davis.
2. To recieve an anniversary pin you must send your mailing address to James aka Bubba at one of these email addresses: james011155 at yahoo.com or james11155 at yahoo.com or to Mags at TxAngelMom@aol.com....Mags will forward your info to me if you are more comfortable with this means.
3. You agree to notify James Davis or Mags Sipole if you should loose your quit. We will reactivate your quit only when you feel confident enough for us to do so.
4. Your pin, if at all possible, will be sent to you no matter where you live so long as your quit is valid and you have a mailing address.
5. You can be confident that your mailing address and email address will always be confidential and not used for any purpose other than sending you your pin.
6. To be listed on the Achiever's List you must be quit from smoking. Participation is based on your honesty and trust worthiness. Be True To Yourself!

Achiever's Quit Smoking List....what is it and why the yearly updates?
|
"It is that time of the year when I try to confirm everyone's quit dates are accurate and still correct and safe. I've had a few who have felt it is wrong for me to drop and add names from the list but I feel our lives are constantly changing and it is important our Acheiver's List integrity stay intact.
We tell ourselves that we will never smoke again but none of us are perfect, we are as they say "only human". Our addiction will always be part of us and when we least expect it and we've grown over confident, that addiction can take hold of us again. If for any reason anyone should loose their quits I want them to know Freedom Village Forum will be online for them when they need a place to lean on. It is a place of understanding where no one will judge but will have empathy for your situation.
If you quit smoking or you know someone who has then publicly announce the achievement by giving your name or that of someone else (with their permission of course) to be listed in the Achiever's Quit List.
I do not believe in bringing awareness to tobacco abuse with scare tactics (pictures of diseased lungs, etc), guilt trips or lectures. I feel it is best to bring proof to smokers ( I WAS one!) that quitting can be done successfully and they are not alone in giving up cigarette smoking.
There are no "ifs" "ands" or "buts"...CIGARETTE SMOKING IS AN ADDICTION and it does kill! When you "choose" to give up smoking, it will be for your own reasons and not someone else's. Those reasons can be for freedom from an addiction that is in control of your life or it can be for health, monetary, social, family, love, etc.... whatever the reason it will be yours and yours alone.
Take a look at the Achiever's Quit Smoking List....and you will see the proof that quitting is done everyday.....successfully!"
Respectfully yours,
James aka Bubba
