Satire About Addiction
Satire It’s not surprising that in this world you see at least one person a day smoking. Seeing one person just taking their life away with something so stoppable. It's a religion that I must say myself. People believe that it's going to take all their misery away along with all of their problems that exist. But, it doesn't. I live for the day that I see people that actually enjoy to be on this earth. A part of this world. Being a human. I see it as this, smokers believe that every puff of nigatein that shoots in their body is one less thing they have to stress about, but it's actually 11 minutes of your life gone. As struggle is a major experience in the world today. Many people handle their own struggles in different ways. As most

people in the world are apart of some sort of religion, as they express the ways to live and what roles they set their life to live by, it apart of something some much bigger than to oneself. Many people have a desire to have a religion and follow their religion of choice to set themselves goals for life and also to be apart of something greater in this world. As many people feel as if the only religions in society are Christianity, Islam, Judaism, etc. I feel as if addiction is one of them. For example, smoking is a religion.
Religion is the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or gods: Controlling power could also be as in addiction.
So my point is proven correct. And let's hope that from now on people let people keep their addictions and let whatever outcome happens from their addiction may be. Let people in this world be free and let them be happy. Addiction is the fact or condition of being addicted to a particular substance, thing, or activity: As addiction explains how it can be a activity you may be activity is another reason why my point is correct. Addiction doesn't have to be a substance or something uncontrollable, but can be a certain activity you may attend. This activity could be your religion. As in what you practice or what you believe in. As many people do believe that smoking does relieve pain and frustration thats why people do it. Therefore, as I state that smoking is the new in approve religion in the world you'd be surprised how many people practice …show more content…
it. There are currently 20 billion people in the world that smoke. 48 percent of them being adult males and 12 percent being adult females with the leading 38 percent being both males and females under the age of 18. Now, as this can't be completely proven it gives you a visual and idea how how many people smoke in the world. Nowadays it would be unheard of for people not to smoke.
Smoking is a part of everyday life, although, believe it or not, it has only recently become so. As these are reasons people may smoke. Some children may begin to smoke if they have low self-esteem. Smoking may get them in with the "in crowd" and help them to make friends. If they smoke, then they will be accepted by their peers.Also, peer pressure. Also many children start smoking because their friends have tried it or smoke themselves. Also children may have started as they have grown up in an environment where their parents, grandparents and older siblings smoke, and so they smoke in order to look and act like them. Other children start smoking as an act of rebellion or defiance against their parents or people of authority. As these are just a couple reasons to why people smoke there are
more.
So my proposal is this. As there was a time in the world when cigarettes were a motivation to the world. When you walked into a restaurant for example and were offered to sit in the smoking or nonsmoking section. When you were encouraged to go outside take a cigarette to your mouth and just feel free. I now say let it be okay, let the smokers smoke till death, let the churches praise till there's no one left, let people live their addiction to the human existence is extinct. And I say this because addition is not going anywhere. No matter how many programs are place, no matter what punishments are set, because people are still going to do and stick with what makes them happy and free. That's what everyone in this world wants is to happy and free and addictions area apart of that.
For all of those smokers out in the world that feel like smoking is their relief to the struggles in life and apart of their nature is just foolishness. It's kind of pathetic the way people's mind are these days. I don't get how anyone could feel like the answer to relieving all the stress in your life is by becoming addicted to something to take life away. Its crazy how people set themselves to relieve stress in such a matter. “Each day at least 3,200 people smoke their first cigarette under the age of 18.” Think about that for a moment, insane isn't it. Just like “ 20 million Americans have died from smoking since 1964.” Think of how egar people are to relieve their pain rather than figure it out on their own. Its like smokers these days are scared of being worried or scared of the world making them feel a different way so they sit and find themselves a religion to just make all of it going away.
