We can never get enough of what we really do not want. We don't really want drugs, we want what we hope they'll bring us, wholeness, satisfaction, escape from pain.

God, as I understand You, let me see what I really want

[majestyjo]

We used for many reasons. I know that when something stopped working for me, I went looking for something else and it always seemed to take more, to briing me to a plac where I was comfortable, only to not be able to stop there and having to have more. Always search, always needy, and as I often say, "When I get needy, I get greedy." I want more of what I am having, I want what you are having and what I can talk you out of, and more of anything else that comes my way.
