We haven’t decided yet. A friend of mine refuses to have kids with his wife, he’s of the opinion that adopting an orphan and giving them a life they otherwise couldn’t have due to their circumstances is the right way to go. I differ in opinion, for personal reasons. I’m not at all opposed to adopting, I’m all for it as a last resort. We will keep trying though, success is in the hands of Allah SWT. Thanks for the kind words, I appreciate it!.
Tried vaping, causes a lot of mucus build-up. Also, I find vaping to be a lot more addictive than regular cigarettes, its stealthy convenience means there is no particular time and/or place for it. You can pretty much vape wherever you like. I was going through 1 Juul pod a day, that’s the equivalent of smoking a pack a day. Whereas a regular pack would last me 4 days, sometimes 5 if I stretch it.
Lastly, I think vape being condensation, it leads to liquid build-up in your lungs after prolonged usage. I could be wrong though.
By judging smokers I meant if the person is doing that openly in front of elders, family, etc. then I form a negative opinion of such smokers. I have both kinds of smokers in my extended family, on one extreme are those who smoke daily but I have hardly ever seen them smoking with my own eyes, they make sure very few people see them smoking. On the other extreme there are those who smoke even in front of their parents.
I had some female teachers who used to smoke, but they made sure no one outside their group sees them. I saw them smoking once only by accident. Their respect remained the same in my heart. On the other hand, some female colleagues of mine used to smoke openly when I was in college and I didn’t like that one bit.
