  • My father really loves smoking. Even in the hospital last time, he found a cigarette and asked me the lighter. :( Of course I grabbed it and prevented of doing so. He only smiled. But after discharging from hospital just a few days, no one can prevent him. Hufth.....:(((

  • Kharoshiy Romik! I like you nice and analytic comment. I hope people will hesitate many times before lighting a cigarette. Thanks for those useful tips. 

  • I’d been smoking for about twenty years before I made up my mind to give it up. Of course my first attempt failed. But it didn’t stop me, and I got on with trying. Eventually, I managed to get through it. By now I haven’t been smoking for almost seven years yet and I am happy to be free from that addiction.I never realized how much I had been spending on cigarettes before I stopped smoking. I was amazed when I figured out it was quite a lot of money. At the moment it would be much more - the governments of lots of countries including mine have been struggling against smoking for recent years. Because of it cigarette prices are through the roof now. So I'm sure If I was smoking I would be hard up. However in my view money isn't the main reason for people for giving up cigarettes. The basic issue of smoking is a harm to the health of the smokers and people who are in a smoking area, especially children. I guess eventually most of smokers like me come to realize that they've had enough of smoking and try to give it up. From my own experience I can say it's not as difficult as it seems. If you make a little effort I'm dead certain you will get through it. Anyway, to smoke or not to smoke is up to you. But, if you are still smoking, before you've lighted another cigarette please look around - probably there are people around you who don't want to be passive smokers but they don't have any other options, unlike you.

  • Semoga Tuhan memberkatinya. May Allah bless his soul. I hope the members especially those who smoke will be careful after reading your useful comment. Why didn't you try to talk to him to quit earlier? Oh! it's useless to speak of what had been done. Thanks Andy.

    One of my colleagues died of throat cancer 2 years ago. He was a 45 years old bachelor and a very heavy smoker with 2 -3 packs of cigarettes everyday.
    The deadly desease took his life away in just 6 months, indeed he was a very honest, humble and easy going person, it's really hard to get a friend like him nowadays.
    May he be peaceful there and hopefully no more victims.

  • It's very hard to quit smoking especially someone who had smoked for 9 years. You would have been through physical addiction to nicotine, craving. You did conquer yourself, Congratulation.

  • Tres bon, mon ami, Ousmane Ouedraogo! I call that a victory. I hope other smokers will follow suit. Thanks for your advice to the others. You have given a good example for them. I hope they see the time you spent smoking and suddenly you quit. Money can be compensated or restored but the time, nine years of your life is not a short time, is it? Thanks again.
