I have a friend. He is an alcholic, but he is one of the greatest guys I know. A good father, husband, christian. He has 2 wonderful boys, a nice home, a wife.
Normally he doesn't drink. But a few weeks ago, he had a few while some family/friends were over. Then he had a few another night. Then another.
Within a few weeks, he had gotten drunk, fell asleep at work, is on probation now... had to take a pay cut, after finding out his wife is now pregnant with twins. Then found out he has a spot on his lung (smoker), his mother died, ... and doesn't remember this happening but his wifes daughter (age 16) said he came into her room and was talking dirty to her and began to masturbate. She has turned him in to her school and they notified the authorities. Now he has pneumonia, probably from all the stress.
So I am thankful that I have my health, and also do not have a destructive disease like alcholism... as so many wonderful people suffer from.
Now, if I could just get over being such a big dummy when it comes to this love thing...
