How Can I except people who smoke?

I find it so disgusting when people smoke. I get dizzy just smelling it. I wish people would stop, but I know it probably isn't an easy feat. Is there any way I can learn to except people who smoke? I try to think about the good things in them, but they always act like they think they are too cool for anyone else. Any ideas? I'm desprate. I hope I haven't hurt anyones feelings, cause I wasn't trying to.

Know that their smoking is killing them, and try to picture the person on his deathbed, as a shriveled up man, but maybe only actually 50 years old, dying because he ruined his lungs, heart, skin, and immune system with tobacco. The smoker you are with will be that person soon enough, so give your compassion to that old dying man. Another way to pretend that might help is to think of the smoker as a baby, who is helpless, for that smoker was a baby once, too. Again, give your compassion to the baby in the form of the dying smoker he is now. Good luck!

You are a young person with a road of life exsperiances ahead of you. You will find many annoying things about others but do keep in mind you too have annoyiances, as well. Thank goodness it is not smoking. Smoking is so bad for you and it smells terrible. Don't turn your back on thoughs that smoke this doesn't mean you have to put up with it being in the same room just walk away but don't turn your back.

Accept them by seeing the good sides of them. Smoking is just a small thing on the big scale of what can be really Bad.
