"I Quitted Smoking Because ...."

I spent 20 years asking why can't you stop smoking, and during that time I used to also ask why did you start smoking

And all I used to get was some gibberish and crap (in my opinion) about how it's a bad habit but the person cant stop, or how it's something to spend the time, or an outlet to frustration or any locked up energy and if they wanted to quit they would in an instance but they wont

Till recently I got to ask a new question: "why did you quit"

I’m not gonna talk about that person's reasons for quitting smoking, which are pretty convincing for that kind of person that that person is

But let me walk you through what was after the question, and through one of the reasons that many people gave me along those years,

It’s an outlet, "something that I can burn, instead of burning inside myself and exploding"

But hey, wait a min, you're literally burning your lungs in the process of smoking, so what is obvious is that you'd prefer physical burn than emotional burn!!!!! What kind of thinking is that?.

Plus you say it's an outlet for your energy?? I answer to that, that you didn't look well before you said that, because there are far more better ways to let out those built up emotions, ways better than burning yourself, you could dance, do any sort of sport starting from running, to violent sports, to swimming to anything that you can think of and can make you exert a lot of energy,

But instead a smoker choses the laziest way to vent their locked up emotions and energies…. what a waste
