I’ve been staying in the hospital for two days now, my mom has been having high body temperature. The doctor said, they can’t say anything until around three to five days. This situation is killing me. I don’t really care how many days required to get healed or how much money needed, but at least I need to know what kind of illness that mom’s suffering from. How do we find a cure if we don’t know what we’re curing?

By the way, this thought also applies to our life. We cannot heal our heart if we don’t know which part of our heart that is hurting. We may think it’s the whole part, but we could be wrong. The same thing works for forgiveness. How can we forgive if we don’t know whom to forgive?

Everything comes back to the root of the problem. Do you know what (or who) your problem is?

Yeah, I am. In fact, you are too. Think about it, there must be something in life that you are addicted to.

Every one of us is an addict, but we have different addictions from one another. Is it coffee? Shopping? Drugs? Ciggies? A he? A she?

addict |?adikt| noun a person who is addicted to a particular substance, typically an illegal drug • [with adj. ] informal: an enthusiastic devotee of a specified thing or activity.

I have mine which always makes me weak on my knees. Most of the time I really CAN not think about it, but when the tangible object come across me, I suddenly want to faint and feel all of my blood rushes into my brain (agak lebay sih, hahaha).

Can addiction be cured? Sure, but it can also fool you, because the last time I thought it was over, I got it all wrong.

One more thing. Do you know what’s so dangerous about addiction? When you ‘fall’ into the same addiction for the second time, it could be twice as strong, thus if you want to quit, the journey would be twice as hard.

Oh no. I don’t think my current addiction can be cured.

Help!
