I CAN RESIST ANYTHING BUT TEMPTATION. WRITE ABOUT A TIME YOU MANAGED TO RESIST Have you ever been the sensation to want to change something in your life? Something that was wrong, something that wasn’t useful in your life and you knew that you could also live without it. Two years ago i woke up with the hope to resolve an important problem in my life, i decided to stop smoking, so i took the cigarettes in my bag and threw it away. I knew that it was very difficult but i needed to cure my addiction to tobacco, i decided to spend all my money buying chewing gum, chocolates and candies because i had thought that the best way to elimate something was to find something that could take its role. I haven’t gone out with my friends for about one month because they smoked and i couldn’t fall into temptation. I tryed to spend my time reading books or playing with my dog, or watching tv because in this way i didn’t think about cigarettes and their smell. It was very difficult when I met someone smoking , I used to change the way or seek something that could take my attention more than the man/woman who was smoking. It was a beautiful and sunny day when i realized that i hadn’t thought about cigarettes for all day. I was very happy about it and i decided that the same night I would go to a party with my friend to taste my strength. During the night i danced , drank and spoke with other people, at the end of the party i went to the car with my friends to go at home,i was opening the car’s door when i saw a pack of cigarettes on the floor. I don’t know why but i took and opened it, it was new and full of cigarettes. In that moment there was a voice inside me that was saying to not do stupid things, but i was too tired to resist so i put it in the car. When i arrived at home, i took the pack of cigarettes and i went to the garden to smoke it but i understood that i couldn’t do it because i had spent vary difficult moments controlling myself and my addiction so i had to made a sense of my scrifices and for this reason i threw it away and i want to sleep with a smile on my face and thinking that i had done it!

Brava, anche per evitare a fumare.

Last paragraph: This is a 'run-on sentence'. It is too big...try making a few sentences (multiple subjects and objects!).

When I arrived home, I took the pack of cigarettes and I went to the garden to smoke them, but I understood that I couldn’t do it because I had many difficult moments controlling myself and my addiction. So, I had to (1) make sense of my (2) sacrifices. For this reason, I threw it away and I went to sleep with a smile on my face, (3) knowing that i had done it!

"sacrifices"

"make sense of"

"knowing that"

yeah, i agree with you but it's very difficult to find something that can take its place.. And it's also very hard not to fall into temptation..

I rather say bad habits than temptation. Yeah, it is difficult to control such habit and more while being an adult. My advice is to change that bad habit for another habit a good habit I mean doing whatever is good for you and your health. Walking might be a good idea you will recover strenght. I use to smoke to but for me it is really easy to quit it. Anyway, that's my advice! Greetings!
