Your logic is why I give people in generations before me a bit of a pass. I'm born in '87 and I was alive to remember smoking in cars and restaurants at least, and so if you're older than me, you may have been told it was okay. But if you're my age or younger, we have had it slammed into our heads since youth that smoking kills, and so when I see you smoking a cigarette it just hits a little different than our older counterparts.

One of the ingredients is how bloody emotional of an addiction it is. You feel personally challenged if somebody berates your behavior. I know, in a quite rational human being, but I'd feel troubled by posts and papers on the downsides of the addiction.

When you stop you stay to see and smell it too. I want to think it stinks, but somehow somewhere it does still smell nice. I know for a fact that even though I'm through all this, is fall for it again immediately.

It's such a deep seated thing, if you never had addiction it's hard to grasp.
