A GIFT OF LIFE FOR YOURSELF

I have run into so many people lately that are addicted to crack cocaine or some other drug. One person has a plane ticket to Alberta where she can go to a treatment center, and a very expensive one too but she just can't say goodbye to the drugs. I saw her yesterday trying to stay warm in a mall, she was cold and looked so thin and tired.
I have been trying to convince her to go, that it is only for 3 months but she won't commit.
Why we choose that life of addiction over living clean I'll never know. That decision to go to treatment is frightening, it is like your losing your best friend.
She is in such bad shape as I was when I finally gave in and went into a center myself but once I walked through those doors I could finally relax, I knew there was going to be no more chaos, at least for awhile.
After a few days in there I was already feeling a thousand times better. I wasn't trying to figure out where my next high was going to come from. I was getting food, a warm bed, and great counselling. Those Counsellors aren't gods and they can only help if you really want it....
Doesn't' what I'm telling you sound OK, don't you think you can handle it, I think you can.
Look, whats the worst thing that can happen? You stop using drugs for a couple of months and you have the choice to use again when you get out right? But I know you won't because you will see what I've been trying to tell you, there is no comparison of the two. Play them through and you'll see that using is just a life of chaos and heartache.
Won't you just give it a try, go to a treatment center and win your life back. You'll love it I promise . Give yourself this gift and it will reward you for the rest of your life.
