Day 26: Halting the Hustle

Day 26: ( Random thought) Doesn't it make perfect sense that we would become addicted to anything that causes us pleasure, regardless of the pain that comes with it? I mean you take the good with the bad, right? Think about it... You have sex addicts, drug addicts, gambling addicts, gaming addicts, food addicts, love addicts the list goes on and on. So how can addiction really be considered an illness? I believe its human nature to want to do things that make you feel good, and in this thing called life nothing's perfect. All the addictions listed above provide pleasure, making them fun and desired by someone, lots of someone's. Given the option I believe that people would never stop doing them if they didn't go broke, risk going to jail, risk obesity, worry of pregnancy or stds. If they were able to enjoy these addiction forever just teetering on the brink of destruction but never cross over would it even be called addiction anymore or just humans enjoying life. I've always been told to live life to the fullest, you only get one chance, but then society and laws place so many rules on the things that are really fun telling us were addicts if we enjoy those things. So were forced to hide our addictions, making us feel ashamed of who we are, causing depression and worthlessness. So stop telling me to have fun, enjoy life....cause you don't really want to see that!
