Dear Brother:
I hope this letter finds you in sound health and cheerful spirits. Well, I am writing to you to talk on a very serious issue. Mother has told me you have started smoking. I was just shocked! How could you be so unwise! No one in our family has ever fallen to this hazardous habit! It is all the result of your bad company. Let me just tell you some of the hazards of smoking.
There is famous saying about smoking which says, “Smokers don’t grow old…they die young…” It is written on every cigarette packet in bold that CIGARETTE SMOKING IS INJURIOUS TO HEALTH, still people not only buy them, but also smoke them! Smoking cigarettes is very hazardous to the health of smokers and the health of the people around them. Many people die because of inhaling cigarette smoke every year. Some of the harmful ingredients in cigarette smoke are nicotine, carbon monoxide, and tar. Nicotine is addictive. It is also one of the most dangerous chemicals in cigarette tobacco.
Smoking causes lung cancer, cancer of the larynx, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema. The hazards of these diseases increase with the quantity of cigarettes smoked and the length of time the habit continues. Cigarette smoking has disastrous consequences: It damages just about every organ of the body and leads to the general deterioration of the smoker's health.
My dear younger brother we all love you and don’t want to lose you! Kindly give it up completely. For God’s sake don’t even smoke a single cigarette. Focus on your life, career, and other important issues of life. I am sure you won’t disappoint me. Give regards to mother and dad. Lots of love to you.
Yours affectionately,
Sneha
