DON’T SMOKE!
Period.
🙂
When I see young people, especially, smoking I shake my head internally. But I did it. So I don’t say anything.

Still, it’s good advice, and I hope you continue to give it. You have firsthand experience with smoking and its effects, so you have a valuable perspective on this situation. 🙂

Yes I was an occasional smoker who quit completely while still in school! 🙂 But I have seen its effects in the elderly, cutting short productive lives in a grisly, painful manner. Nothing cool about it. Methinks the future will look back on smoking with the amazement of anthropologists looking at any curious human custom, habit, etc.

I’m glad you quit. It really is a poison that shortens people’s lives. The sooner the practice is gone, the better.
