Smoking breaks the links

February 28, 2012
By Anonymous

am i the only one that notices this, parents holding their kids, cigeret in hand, telling them not to smoke? why should they give advice, when they don't take it? i don't understand this, this fact of life that seems so pointless. parents who smoke telling their kids not to while smoking in front of them. don't these people relize that even though they are telling their kids not to smoke, they are not helping anything because they don't bother to quit themselves. i have parents that smoke infront of me, telling me these things. my dad has smoked more years than i have lived, and i know that one day, it will kill him. i don't know about you, but i prefer my parents alive. if you smoke, quit, please. don't do it for your self, do it for the people you love. if you die, you won't be the one suffering.

Everything you have will someday be gone. Even if you don&rsquo;t miss it now, you probably will later. So take pictures and hide them in your memories so you can recall them later after everything that is becomes everything that was. OR I know you&rsquo;re hurting, even if it&rsquo;s just when you&rsquo;re alone and thoughts seem to rush into your head and you can&rsquo;t seem to keep them from coming in. But there can be beauty in pain; Even though sometimes it&rsquo;s hard to see.
