Opis

Hello, Zoe Taylor here. The things that I did and the things that happened to me can only be traced to my cigarette addiction. Perhaps there were tiny seeds and character flaws from my childhood that made me prone to my addiction, or maybe it can be traced to a chemical imbalance, fluctuating serotonin levels. Maybe it was a little glitch in my DNA, dormant until that first inhalation of hazy, gray smoke. You can judge for yourself. But there is no doubt in my mind that the weaknesses in my character steeped in smoke, tar, CO2, and nicotine led to events through which I degraded myself and eventually rewrote my future. This is not a story about how I overcame cancer, although that story may be waiting for me still down the line. This is story that proves that the effects of our actions can be completely unpredictable; that explores the nature of addiction and the way it self-destructs our best instincts.
