The Smoker’s Way of Life

Submitted by Jessica Sun 01/04/2009
It is probably considered the number one addiction in America…aside from drinking, and yet the number of smokers keeps growing. Why is it that people feel this need to smoke? Why do they need to when they know they are destroying their bodies? Some smokers feel that the cigarette is something they can turn to, to help with their stress, others think that it makes them look more mature and more cool towards other people. Maybe they came home from a long, hard, and extremely stressful day of work, and they just need to light up a smoke, sit back, relax, and just breathe. Some of the smokers do not realize the consequences of their actions. Smoking most certainly does not carry any good health results. Some people may think you are cool for smoking, but you need ask yourself; will these people be there if I end up in a hospital from smoking so much?
