THE PRIMARY CAUSE OF SELF-ABUSE.
Whenever you possess something, but lack the understanding of its value, there are some consequences you suffer
3. YOU ABUSE YOUR LIFE
Smoking is a worldwide problem, almost in every nation and culture. The fight against this menace is so comprehensive that, even the very same package of cigarettes now carry warning to its potential victims. Nevertheless, nothing has seemed to work in the fight against smoking. More and more number of youths and adults get addicted to nicotine on daily basis. While the whole world is struggling to help people get their freedom from the dangers of smoking, yet the over five million people, who yearly die from smoking still voluntarily head towards that deadly part. It is not other people who make them to smoke, it is mostly a voluntary act
How do we explain such a paradox? The explanation is simple. When we possess something without knowing its value, we abuse it. When we as human beings, are trusted with life, but lack the value thereof, we are only left with one thing – Abuse!
In the case of these smokers, this abuse leads to sicknesses, cancer, amputation, and losses of all kinds and worse of all, death. To possess something without the corresponding knowledge, is extremely dangerous indeed. You may not be a smoker, but do know the value of your life? If you look closely at your life, won’t you find that you abuse it on a daily basis due to ignorance?
To be continued tomorrow with the following point:
- How and why we suffer loss in life
