"smokers are stupid idiots"
no, i disagree. and for the record, i don't smoke, nor would i work for a tobacco company.
some people smoke as a form of stress release. a self-prescribed medication if you will, sans the hassle of going to the doctor and calling up the pharmacy monthly to refil your prozac script.
it's a simple trade-off. a life of easy living for a gamble. a high risk gamble where the stakes are an abrupt end to your life. is it worth it? only you can answer that. personally, it's not worth it to me. my life is important to myself and it's important to my friends and family.
however, while i don't support or encourage my friends' habit of smoking, i don't ridicule them for it. it's their choice.
but i don't look forward to the day, God forbid it comes, that they find themselves invalid, laying on their deathbed at a young age with a month life expectancy.
my friends dad was just diagnosed with cancer. he was given 6-8 weeks. i wonder if he would have done things differently if he were given a second chance... would you?
