tobacco.


so sitting here, listening to sigur ros, loving the beauty of Gods creation, hating the sickly way man has screwed up what life should be.
cigarettes:

i mean why? what good is there? i should get this out of the way before is get too into it; i have never smoked and hope never to (apart from a puff here and there).

i hate the adictive nature of it, the way it draws in people and leaves them unable to cope without it.

i observed a lady today at work whos first thoughts were to get a packet of smokes even though she hadnt eaten all day and needed food. i dont understand and i hate the way it has a hold of her. i hate the way it has made her weak and has taken priority in her life. i hate it.

i hate the way it is connected to politics. you cant deny the fact governments get a hell of alot of money from tobacco, but how sad is the world we live in that they use this and take advantage of people.

it is currently law that tobacco companys can not print the strength of tobacco on a packet of cigarettes in a bid to not show some cigarettes a 'weaker' than others and hence healthier. this is a big problem as it not only means the companys dont have to tell you whats in the cigarettes but also the customer doesnt know the strength of the cigarette. new, cheaper smokes have been introduced onto the market yet they dont tell you what strenths they are, so you have people guessing buying cigarettes stronger then they usually buy and hence getting more addicted.
i hate this cycle and i can only pray more kids dont start smoking.

i guess its the same as gambling and alchol. both create addictive non-essential behaviors that are financially and socially detremental.

anyway thats enough of me. if you want to real somthing really interesting.. cheak out an interview here of a man who i admire alot. aaron weiss from mewithoutYou.
