Addictions, Drugs, Girls, and other things that suck!

So right now everything is really strange. In the words of Jim Morrison, "People are strange when you're a stranger, Faces look ugly when you're alone, Women seem wicked when you're unwanted, Streets are uneven when you're down."

Oh how true these words are. Life always seems to be a strange thing, a wanting that I can not embrace.

Addictions are one of the things that baffle me. We all are addicted to something, whether it be to some sort of food, to a TV show, or a drug , or porn, or anything. We live in a society that breeds upon our addictions. The companies both good and evil, they all dive deep into the world of addictions. If you feel like you need it, then the supply will be there. Just one more Big Mac, one more piece of candy, one more glance at the pretty girl that is sitting behind you in your college class, one more cigarette, one more hit on the pipe, Just one more . . .

Greed. Lets talk about what you want at all cost. All the extra nights at work, spending all those extra hours to pay for the house that you cant afford, in a neighborhood that is to far from your work, driving a car that could put your 3 children through college, and buying those things that make us "happy". Real happiness does not come from these things that are so much of the world. You find me that most un-greedy person and I will show you a truly happy person.

Status is something that we have created. We have placed ourselves and others in to classes that somehow reflect on your up bringing, or your education, or anything for that matter. We are all so quick to judge others and judge them of their problems, that we forget that you must first take care of yourself before you can cure another person. Even once you reach this point you still must strive to never fall again to that illness.

Pride is the friend of Greed. We become greedy out of the womb of Pride. Never has any person who has become greedy not fallen victim to the sword of pride. Never should we allow ourselves to play with pride. It is a two edged sword that cuts both parties. Pride has been that fall of many persons in the course of history. Pride has brought war and death. Pride has robbed children of living together with their parents, it has broken the hearts of both husbands and wives. It has destroyed homes and crushed the dreams of others. Pride is an illness that has robbed the heart of some of the greatest and most wonderful treasures, but they are all lost in the deeps of the sea of Greed and Pride.

We can almost conclude that when these two ideas enter into our mind that they are surly there to destroy us and not to satisfy any of our needs, but to rather satisfy ones self.


This is why sacrifice is the great cure for the cold of greed and pride.
