Thinking Space

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” - Mark Twain

This issue affected me emotionally because my dad smokes, and has been smoking for over fifteen years. I commented in a way that allowed the audience to see that this ‘toy’ would not work as well as everyone would like to believe because I know firsthand what it’s like to want someone to stop smoking. I watched my grandfather’s health rapidly deteriorate over the years because of his smoking addiction. Having flavors in this electric cigarette will only make people want to smoke more, and I believe that the issue is more serious than the creator of this product is making it out to be. Maybe if there were some more tests done, then the health risks associated with this product will be exposed!
