Quitting smoking

[Hopeful]

I am proud to say that, although I have not completely eradicated my vice in smoking, I am smoking less and less every day. I already came into a realization that I am not getting any younger and it is time to act now for a healthy living. But, hell yeah, I am still a working progress for this matter.

I perfectly understand the situation. Withdrawal from smoking takes a lot of time and sacrifices for it to be fully erased from someone’s habit. It takes patience and discipline to avoid the urge of a stick of cigar.

With the world financial crisis right now, people should think twice before buying something that is just for vice…a perfect example for this are cigarettes.

In hindsight, I think smoking is really not that lethal if just taken into moderation. We have to face the fact that some people tend to get so weak and sickly if they cannot smoke cigars in their lives.

This is purely psychological. How can anyone get so sick and tired over ending something that is bad for someone’s health. The reason maybe why some people feel indisposed when they cannot smoke because their body system is already used to the effects of cigarette in the body. Again, such phase is part of withdrawal syndrome for ending smoking.

anything lethal to our body is dangerous. Smoking cigarettes is not an exemption to the rule!

I agree with the idea that smoking, regardless if done in moderation or extreme, will not contribute goodness into someone’s body. It kills, instead….killing the user slowly. We have to take into consideration that one of the world’s prevalent diseases is lung cancer.

And lung cancer can attack anyone without prior morning. I have a friend whose uncle died due to lung cancer. Accordingly, the uncle was a chain smoker and that during one of his typical physical evaluation of his company, it was found out that he had lung cancer. Just months after the discovery of illness, the patient died.

I am just curious --- if cigarettes are really not good to us, then why do we allow companies and manufacturers to sell cigarettes in the society? Why is that authorities do not go after those who manufacture and sell cigarettes, taking the fact that cigarette smoking is indeed very dangerous to human health.

lol..Nice one! Yeah, why is that? Don’t blame the users, blame the manufacturers and the companies producing them. No one will buy if no one is selling! Hehehe.
