Who lives without addiction? Very few people. Some of the worst addictions are given the best names and the most pardens.
But what is an addiction?
To feel the need to do. The need to be. The need to act or go. The need to do anything that, once complete, leaves you in the same place you began.
But this alone is not addiction.
Addiction is the feeling of loss associated with NOT doing, or NOT being, or NOT going and NOT acting. Addiction is painless while ongoing.
To many, Life seems an addiction. It's a constant itch to do SOMETHING. Anything. And as long as they are actively doing- whether it be a relationship, a marriage, a job, a video game- they are feeding the addiction.
And when they find themselves without these things, they find themselves with the suffering of addiction.
