Thinking back on the time when I was very active in my drug and alcohol use, I can remember many occasions when I would work 40 hours a week to get paid. I would cash my check and lie to myself, saying that I would only spend a small amount on getting high. A couple hours after cashing my 40 hr check, I would be broke and disappointed in myself. I would swear to myself that this was the last time I would do this and that I could stop using on my own. The next Friday I would lie to myself again only to be disappointed again in a couple hrs. I'm grateful to have gotten the chance to get into a treatment program and for being taken to church regularly as a child so that I could learn about a God that is greater than an addiction and that the lie that man says "Once an addict, always an addict" is just that. A lie
