The voice of addiction

I was hoping this morning that the neighbour's dog wouldn't wake me this morning with his barking at 5:30am. He didn't! Instead there was a firetruck that went by at 4:45am. Sigh.

As I walked to Loblaws this morning a beautiful well-put together young lady caught up to me  and asked me to purchase her some beers. She was on her way to work as a server and said that the beers would make her more "friendly". While I told her I wouldn't buy her the beers I talked to her for a bit about some other options and tried to give her some confidence, it didn't make a difference as the voice of addiction is louder than any other voices for her right now. My heart went out to her though. I hope she will see the way out before it is too late.
