No Amount of Smoking Is Safe PERIOD.
One of the few vices I was wise enough to avoid altogether......except as a kid being exposed second hand to my parents chain smoking.
I can’t imagine how smoking is good for one’s health. Though in the generations before me they gave out free cigarettes on airplanes to relax the nervous flyers.
Nicotine is addictive. It’s hard to quit. I smoked. I enjoyed it. It was like a form of affection - hot smoke down my esophagus. I always told people they’d have to tie me to a tree for a week to get me to quit. Then I had a heart attack and spent a week in the ICU. Slept through the worst of the withdrawals I guess. But as I left the hospital I told everyone that was my week tied to a tree. I was done.
