Cigarette Smoking is Cool..or..is it?

Many believe and there are numerous experts opinions (or facts) that points smoking as an ADDICTION. Addiction to the nicotine they say.. To kick an addiction.. Usually.. Involve medical consultation.. Medication.. ($$$$)That may take weeks.. Month.. Or even years to go through before there is even a tinge of improvements. Maybe it is just to add more economic value to medical industries. Personally.. I believe 200% that smoking is a just a bad HABIT.. and to kick away a habit just requires.. TOUGH DEDICATION (not medication).. I was a smoker for 15 years and quit smoking in 15 seconds... Was it easy?.. No.. After 12 years since my last stick... I still do have cravings on certain time..like after having food or visiting the toilet.. 😅... (maybe that's the nicotine cravings)... What I do is to just put my 2 fingers on my lips.. Take a deep breath.. Inhale n hold for 5 seconds.. N exhale slowly thru my nose... To me.. It's the same freaking sensation! So.. Y should I waste my time n energy.. rush around.. Looking for a secluded or dedicated smoking area just to get the same result?. Health and Money aside... When we know something is not helping us and counter productive.. And we repeated it do it just to look or feel "cool" becoz everyone else we know are doing it... To me.. It defines STUPIDITY.

Destination Goals..You will get there.. Eventually.

"Are we there yet?".. "How long before we get there?".."How far is it?.. So many questions.. So few answers.. Or is there a real answer to the question of our destination and goals. Every single minute and seconds in our daily life we have a certain goals or destination to meet.. How do we get up from bed to go to the bathroom.. To wash up and get back to the room.. To change.. Need be down at the kitchen.. To prepare breakfast.. N to how best to drive in which directions to go to the multbdestinations that we have.. To school.. To office.. To the market.. To the park.. Etc etc etc.. Journey.. Goals.. Destination.. Every single day.. Every single time.. Every moment.. Literally.. What is my point in all the above rambling?.. The main point is WE WILL.. EVENTUALLY.. GET TO THE DESTINATION.. While driving my kids to school this morning.. It dawn into me that, getting to our life goals and destinations is similar to like driving in an expressway (or highway as they called it in some countries.. Maybe yours.. Hahaha). We chose which lanes we are most comfortable for us to take.. The most safest lane is O the extreme left (or right.. Again depending on which country) however it will take the slowest time for you to get to your destination.. The most riskiest lane will be on the extreme right (should I explain about the country you come from again..? 😅) however it is the fastest time for you to get to where you want to go too. Then there is the middle lanes where the boring drivers are.. Hahaha ha. Therefore.. To get to your destinations and goals are almost a definite.. You will get to where you want to be.. It just depends on which lanes you drive towards it.. Do you want to play it safe? And get there slowly (really slowly).. Or you want to take huge risk and speed up.. You will get your goals much much faster.. (but you risk safety).. It's your choice to make... Just remember.. You will get there.. EVENTUALLY..
