Do not get me wrong, I did not mean to indicate that advertising is the reason everyone is getting sick or having heart attacks. |
Stream smoke has more toxins in it than second hand smoke. The cigarette is a deadly thing. It has no purpose other than to get people addicted and then die a horrible death. True, many will not have easy deaths, but why push the button? I was watching a show a few years back and even the top honcho at the tobacco company had quit smoking. Mostly it's the less educated that won't quit, and it's stubborness many times that keeps them smoking. Fact is cigarettes are chock full of toxins and those toxins go into your lungs. There are many toxins in the world, but cigarette toxins are avoidable and unnecessary.
I've been in a closed car with smokers in it, and it's difficult to breath. That's why they usually pop the window even when it's freezing cold. This isn't from advertising that is subliminally giving people subconscious thoughts, it's reality.
If you don't want to believe the science than use common sense, cause in the end that's why most people quit.
You know why I quit? Because so many hard core smokers had quit that I knew, and I thought, "they aren't going to beat me", I can do it, too", and I did. For me it was a sign of strength. I no longer have to be conscious of how many cigs I have left, or panic if I didn't put a pack in my purse. That to me is freedom. If you can't believe the science then at least believe the inconveniences of smoking. Everything in your house is yellow, and then brown. You won't have near the cleaning, or your poor wife, plus, you won't be an annoyance to other people.
Give it up, just because you can! : )
