My brother has a little bit of a problem controlling his smoking, also. Just because he likes it and it seems to suit his character, it doesn't mean no one tries to stop him.

The interesting thing is you're seeming to quickly assume that there is a problem with these people, yes, and you have to fix it, yes, but you think it is a better idea to bring the body into place with the mind, rather than the mind into place with the body. Why is that?

Stop judging so much.

The eternal Saint is calling, through the ages she has told. The ages have not listened; the will of faith has grown old…

For forever she will wander, for forever she withholds; the Demon King is on his way, you’d best not be learned untold…
