These are only some of the ways that smoking, inhaling, or eating marijuana can affect on your body. 






 In the past month, 6.5 percent of eighth graders, 16.6 percent of 10th graders and 21.2 percent of 12th graders admitted to marijuana use. 

Some of the ways we could help create a non-marijuana using community is by offering help. When using a drug it isn't an easy decision to suddenly decide not to keep doing that drug. They need to slowly get away from it, and even then that isn't easy for some users. 

I commit and promise to never use marijuana, ever, regardless of what society says.

   "Only those live who do good."- Count Leo Tolstoy   This quote, in other words, is saying people that make bad choices don't live to their fullest potential and aren't happy. I partially disagree with this quote because not everyone that makes bad decisions are unhappy. Most people that live a bad life are miserable but very few do not live miserably. I know several people that use drugs, which in some peoples eyes is a bad choice, and they live a happy life, they are intelligent, and get good grades. Also, not everyone that makes bad choices understand why their choices are wrong so they don't even realize and don't feel guilty which helps them live a normal happy life.
