Yes, I guess carrying a pack was a bit like carrying lipstick in one's handbag; simply part of who the user was as a person. (Some young ppl who say that they are against smoking - though maybe good for them! - don't really understand that; that it was something one did so naturally.) Maybe...

The Word of God is so rich and powerful.

@"ByGrace" Thanks for your 'like'.

Good when the thought is worshipful and directed at the Lord. :)

When I survey the wondrous cross On which the Prince of glory died, My richest gain I count but loss, And pour contempt on all my pride. Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, Save in the death of Christ my God! All the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to His blood. See from His...

Sounds like you have many smoking friends; I guess being around them makes you want to keep doing it, too.

Well, you have maybe done well to avoid trying it; maybe avoided a lot of possible problems; the feeling good from it probably isn't worth it and if you've never tried it, you won't miss it.

Be warm and dry soon!

When I survey the wondrous Cross, is another favorite, that is similar to Rock of Ages.
