life is better without smoking, isnt it?

Cigarette is banned in Turkey as from 19 july. You cant light a joyfull cigarette after eating dinner in a restaurant or while sipping your cafe or during playing cards or backgammon with friends in a cafe house anymore. Turkish style coffe houses are known as the place where you can play cards,drink tea,watch football matches and pass the time of day by chatting. Almost all of people who go the coffe houses are smoking. What s more, most of them complain about being out of a job, I hope this ban will help them to go out and try to find a job because passing whole day in a coffehouse never make you have a job. You must go after jobs, if you wait a job to come a coffehouse and find you, dont wait for nothing coz ıt will never find you. :) anyway .
The expression –smoke like a Turk- may be history soon coz I think the ratio of smokers will decrease after this ban. At least I hope so. I dont know how many people smoke in Turkey but the number of smokers are not a few. Many people around me smoke though I hate smoke and smokers. Most of them are my relatives and there is no way but be present in same place with them. Personally, I dont like to accopany with a smokers since the midle-school. Unfortunately the age of starting to smoke has become almost 13. I dont know how I didnt start to smoke in middle-school as most of my friend was smoking. Oh God was protected me I think. You can start to smoke or drink alcohol or get any kind of bad habit thanks to(!) friends. Thanks God that my all friends dont smoke and drink.
As I said, my all friends dont smoke and drink, so I am really very easy annoyed of smoke of cigarette and smell of alcohol. Especially when I think that the smoke comes out from other mouth and go in my nose, auww... I never find a good side of smoking. It s totally harmful and damaging to both budget and health ... There are plus damages of smoking like 69 tl penalty after smoking in closed area. :)) be careful and never say - so, what will happen if I smoke here!. hehe
It will be great for Turkey and Turkısh people. Turkish people will be more healthy from 19 july. As health minister declared, over 100.000 people die from smoking every year. So people wont die anymore from smoking. Is there any good news from this?
It s said that the ban can affect the economic situation and many people can lose their job, but health is more important than everything. People can find another job but cant get his life again. No matter what happens, many people support cigarette ban. They can eat their meal beneath a clear weather and shopping in a good environment.
Although some opposition, most of Turks are happy with ban even if they are smokers. Many people want to quit but await for an excuse, and this is a great excuse for quitting . come on! It s time to quit smoking. I wish smokeless days for Turkey. We all are deserve to live beneath a clear weather. Thanks to government for this award.
