Smoking Addict

Do you smoke ? Are you a smoker ? I am a smoker, heavy smoker. I spend two packs of cigarette in one day. Honestly, I can not "survive" without it. What, ridiculous ? Maybe, if you are a nonsmoking ones. But It is really hard for us, addicted ones, to live without smoke.
Not only once or twice my wife told me to give up smoking. "Burning the money", she called it. No gain, get pain, she added. Yes, we all smoker more than understand about that. We also know that the cigarrettes other names are toxic, death, cancer, etc, etc.
In every pack of cigar that we bought, there's a warning message from the goverment which said : "smoking can cause heart attack, cancer, impoten, bla...bla...bla...". Do you think that those warning can hold us back from smoking ? The answer is : Hell No !!! It's not because we don't afraid of all those effect that a cigar can do to our health, it's because the temptation for smoking is even greater than its effects. The feeling of beeing macho, confident, comfortable when you are smoking is un-replaceable. This feeling even more greater if we are nervous, or in cold area.
Is it impossible for one to quit smoking ? No, it's a big possibilities to give up smoking. What is needed is a strong mind and heart. I had tried it few years ago. And I was sucessful, sadly, for two weeks only. And then after that I became a heavier smoker than before.
Will it be better if the goverment shut all the cigarette factories down ? I believe it will not solve this problem. Closing the factories will be caused more huge problems instead. Think of thousands people who will loose job if the goverment do that. The unemployment will be multiplied rapidly. The farmers who live their life from planting tobacco will collapse. And the chaos will be unbearable.
In one side, it is the biggest income maker for the goverment, in the other side, it is the biggest death creator in this last decade.
By the way, I spent three cigarettes during writting this article.
