Good day folks, so while watching Sense8 last night there was a quote that caught my attention that i felt i should share with everyone.
" It's not the drug
That makes a drug
Addict it's the need
To escape reality"

In this part of the world, people are quick to hate and judge what they can't comprehend, and it's sickening because such mentality spreads like wildfire. People need to accept that people are different and what rocks your boat might not Rock mine. Its a common notion around Nigeria that smokers are bad people and the Nigeria movie industry has helped in spreading that false ideal around, often at times in nollywood movies the villian of the story is usually portrayed always smoking and people get the wrong ideas, hence smoking has been tagged with motivating people to do wrong things. But in truth, people should know its not the THC or Nicotine that makes these villians do terrible things, they do these things because that's how their mindset works, they only smoke or drink to escape that harsh reality but then again reality is an illusion.

Every shortcut is always cut short. Nigerian youths need to learn to face reality and stop looking for a way out in a violent way. Great piece new friend

Thanks new friend

Nice

Thanks

Honestly! Even if you shoved this quote down their throats, a lot of them won’t agree. They’ll probably say something annoying like “An addict wrote that quote”.

Lol, I guess they are right
