Smoke Signals

Then you might ask, if every body knows that it is such a dangerous habit, then why do so many people still become, and continue to remain smokers. Well, the reason is because of a paradox that is involved in the habit of smoking.

If all those who smoked, kicked the bucket at the end of the month, then nobody would even think of smoking. But the paradox is that not everyone who smokes hits the grave that fast. Smoking as a habit is a slow killer. It does not paint all smokers with the same brush of death. On the other hand it is like a florist who picks a few flowers here and a few flowers there to adorn the house but at the same time leaves some flowers on the plant so that the garden does not remain bare.

The problem is that because cigarette smoke as a killer is so choosy, most smokers just keep on hoping that he or she will remain on the plant in the garden forever. In this modern age when we are all so educated and well informed, isn’t it kind of silly to leave ourselves in the hands of fate and just keep hoping that we won’t be next. The funny thing is that we do have a choice.

But there’s more to the story. The matter of choice is something that exists only in the initial stages. At that time it’s just a puff here and just a puff there, more to impress others than any thing else. But soon enough things start slipping out of our control and before we know it we just can’t do with out our daily dose of nicotine in whatever proportions we demand it.
