I can understand the feeling and the actions and yet in truth, I know he walked a different line as a result of his drug of choice that I can't truly relate to. When you use an illegal substance, you walk on the edge and you have the added high of 'not getting caught' and the thrill of getting away with it. It is as addictive as the substance. I don't know this from experience but from volunteering at the local jail and sharing with other recovering addicts. There are always lessons, it is often whether my mind is open to receive them. Often I have to pray for the willingness to be willing.... I have had beliefs over the years, some have changed but for the most part, they have been added to and enriched. Something I posted on another site in 2010 This is a one day at a time program. So glad it is. It give me choices and then allows me to choose again.
