Week 171: This is the Most Harmful Habit

Since I can remember, I have never liked the smell of cigarettes, it is something that I do not tolerate, I do not pass, when I have a person nearby smoking, I try to move away as far as I can, I put my face, but somehow I show my discomfort.

Friends, happy weekend to all, it's been a long time since I participated in the topics of the friend Hive account@galenkp, the truth only did it when I felt identified with any, and when I read about this topic, I did not want to stop giving my experience or thoughts on it.

This is where I always wondered what is the purpose of it, what is the benefit of smoking?

Excuse my ignorance, but it is something that I do not understand, if I understand nicotine is the main component, which generates this dependence and need to smoke, but unfortunately with it also brings other components, which in themselves are harmful, and the worst of all this, is that according to experts, they say it is more harmful to those who are around swallowing the smoke, than for the person who smokes it.

It's unfortunate, but that's how it is, I remember when I was at university, there were people among my classmates who smoked, and I always tried to stay away, because the smoke affected me, it gave me an itchy throat and made me want to cough.

On the other hand, I have an aunt, she was addicted to cigarettes, she consumed more than two or three boxes a day, it was horrible, until last year, when she went to another country with her children and grandchildren, and my cousin told us how she quit.

It turns out that one day her grandson told her that he didn't like her smoking, because he didn't want her to die, that made her react, and suddenly, she gave up cigarettes, and thank God, she hasn't smoked anymore; so if there are those people who think that they can't quit, they are wrong, as they say over there, to will is to be able to do it.

So quitting smoking is the best gift you can give yourself, and the people around you, everything in excess is harmful, you have to think beyond, and leave those things that do not bring any benefit.
