Smoking

I used to smoke.  I quit, but not because I really wanted to live longer.  It was impeding other things in my life that mattered more, so I discarded it.  Not saying it was easy, because it wasn’t.  But I’m not a smoker anymore.

However, I do understand why people smoke.  Every time I hear someone go on a rant about smoking, I’m reminded of Bill Hicks.

He once said, “If smoking bothers you, then I suggest you take a look at the world we live in, and shut the fuck up.”

That about covers it.
