But what people DON'T tell you is, "It's killing me, slowly." Or, "It's ruining my life." Because smoking most certainly can ruin someone's life. It can chase away your friends. It can scare away your loved ones. It can do more harm than good.
What smokers don't care about, though, is that it's actually much harder than it looks to quit smoking. They believe in their hearts, "Oh, I can quit whenever I want. It's easy~" and then, when they're diagnosed with Lung Cancer 30 or 40 years later, they think back on their lives and ask themselves, "Why did I start in the first place? Why did I pick up a cigarette?" And most of all, "Why can't I quit on my own?"
Smoking is pretty much the same as suicide. You're inflicting the death on yourself. The only downside to that fact is that it's not only killing yourself, but it's killing the people around you as well.
So in essence, you're not only killing yourself, but you're murdering the innocent nonsmokers around you. Suicide and murder. It's about as easy as picking up a gun and going on a mass murder, then killing yourself because of your clinical depression and mental instabilities.
All in all, I believe this picture shouts out the lesson many can't seem to realize: Smoking does kill. Not only yourself, but those you love and those around you, as well.
Good job. I think this picture has been one of the best depictions of that phrase, "Smoking kills." Thank you for sharing this to the world at large. And thank you for caring.
