To the ones who feel like they are falling behind
There is something about life that is really vivid. Life is all about capturing the stories in the essence of living through them. It is experiencing life in a way that speaks of it all. It is knowing your worth and keeping your head high. Life is nothing but a beauty of contradiction. The beauty of the promise of forever in a second, the feeling of a lifetime in a moment, the elated lapse of time is gifted to us in a box of experiences that we share with one another.

Initially, the alcohol affects the brain's motor center, cerebellum and the medulla oblongata resulting in a person's poor coordination and balance, sluggish reflexes, change in behavior, and loss of memory slowing of speech, increased rate of heartbeat and breathing. Large amounts of alcohol can even lead to coma or death.

Driving while intoxicated is illegal worldwide. Alcohol consumption slows reflex time and blurs the vision of the driver. This would then lead to an overall poor judgment of the driver, resulting in fatal road accidents. Tobacco Tobacco smoking is habit-forming. The smoke drawn into the lung consists of nicotine, carbon monoxide, tar and other harmful substances. This is why there is a strong link between the act of smoking and respiratory diseases. Nicotine is a stimulant found commonly in tobacco and is responsible for causing most of the chemical changes in the body. Short-term effects of tobacco smoking include an increased heart rate and blood pressure. Tar in the smoke affects the mucus membranes of respiratory systems. This is why smokers cough because they try to clear their respiratory tract. Carbon monoxide damages the lining of blood vessels while increasing fatty deposits on the walls. Nicotine causes blood vessels to constrict which leads to heart diseases. In small amounts, it stimulates the adrenal gland to be active. Smokers may feel nervous and tense for no reason. New smokers can experience nicotine poisoning, whose symptoms include dizziness, vomiting, clammy skin and even fainting spells. The long-term use of tobacco smoking can cause breathing problems like bronchitis, asthma, emphysema, heart disease and lung cancer. Emphysema causes thinning or destruction of alveoli in our lungs. Tar stains teeth and fingers and can deposit in the lungs, leading to growth of cancerous cells. Other chemical irritants in the smoke cause narrowing of air passages. Smoke addiction may lead to social and personal problems. If the addicts are pregnant women, babies are smaller at birth and there is an increased risk of miscarriage, stillbirth and infant death.
