What it's like to be an Addict? My Daughter ask. My Reply.........
I'm an Addict.......
It's walking a path, a path you take everyday but suddenly one day there is a huge hole in the middle of your path and you not paying attention because you walked this path everyday for years fall in. It's not so bad and it wasn't that deep so you climbed right out and went on your way.
On your path of life your walking and you see the hole and you know it's there but you fall in anyway (I mean it wasn't so bad last time) but this time it's deeper but others are there and they lift you out. So you made a friend or two. Dusting yourself off you go about your way.
Your walking along like any other day and you see the hole hey, maybe your new friends are there today so you fall in but this time theres noone there, noone there to lift you out and you realize your stuck. People are walking by and your yelling out for help but they just keep walking. Local Law enforcement come along and give you a helping hand( wanted or not).They help you out and advise you of the hole "Maybe you should find a new path, "They say.
Headstrong you set out on your path you see the hole but you think you are stronger now and you will go around but as you are walking by you see that your friends are there and seem to be having a great time so you fall in. Your kindof broken now and your weak but as your friends are leaving noone offers you a helping hand out, they leave you there. This time it will take much effort to climb your way out . Where will you find the strength? you finally get strong enough to pull yourself out but it wasn't easy and noone was willing to help because they know you knew the whole was there and it was your own fault.
Your walking the path of life but your looking ahead this time. You see the hole but it's alot more obvious this time you consider going back but you go literally jump in and AGAIN your lost and alone in this hole. Noone even sees you now. Noone cares but it's your own fault. Alone you manage to climb out.
Your walking your everyday path of life but this time as you see the hole you look around to the left and to the right , you look up and say a little prayer and the Lord gives you the strength to take a different path.
Hopefully we can all continue to take the different path because forever I am an Addict!
