Smoking
I have always assumed that if ever presented with the opportunity to try a cigarette it would be easy to say no, I know the dangers of smoking, I believe that it is a stupid thing to do, and I always assumed that this knowledge would keep me from trying one. However, it was surprisingly difficult yesterday when I found a pack of cigarettes and a lighter on the job site where I was working, I have always wondered what it would be like to smoke, there is obviously something there because so many people do it. I think it would have been way easier if someone had offered me one, because then I would have had someone to say no to, but it was just me and I knew that I could try one and no one would ever know. Well at first I decided not to so I put the pack aside and went on with my work, but the fact that the pack was still there still tempted me. So one after another I destroyed the cigarettes so that the temptation would be gone, but I was surprised at my own compulsion to try it. I don’t know why I felt so eager to try one despite my knowledge of the ill effects. it gave me something to think about that is for sure.
