On smoking where it is permitted or anywhere and this is from one who did smoke.
I think that at our entry age to live here that the habit of smoking has gone on for so long and is so firmly entrenched and that in most cases that awful almost irreversible addiction is present. Those of my friends who do smoke are smart cookies so I know they know the terrible dangers of continuing. I know that they have tried to stop again and again. We lost Henry's best and closest friend last Christmas time of lung cancer and he had smoked for years.
So I will continue to hope and pray that my friends can kick the addiction, but I will continue to love them and be tolerant of their smoke and their smoking.
There is nothing worse than a reformed anything. I don't like to smell it and it makes me just plain worry when I see people I like so much smoking.
