Day 738

Good afternoon!  My name is Lauren, and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict.  I saw this quote and thought WOW.  It is so true, but a lot of people don't see it, or maybe don't care to see it.  All they see is that it's legal so it's ok.  The government says I can, so it's good for me, or at least ok for me. But the other thing is, some people have no discretion or rationality of what the legal quantities are, and go overboard all the time.  We don't really understand how much damage we are doing to ourselves, until it is too late, or almost too late.  Our culture sells it, like its candy, fun and without consequences.  Until recently, when the police or treatment centers have shown what the other side is like too. But not enough people really see that.  Not enough people see the real destruction it can and does cause.  That's all for today.  Have a great one!
