LAID TO REST

The life of addictions has experienced a sudden death. Laid to rest with last rites and a final farewell reflection. No grieving will enter the scenario. Pleasure will always be among us at every graveside visit. Perhaps one memory will remain. Inspirational thoughts about the death of addictions will be with us as we travel on through life. Also in all our sober days to come. Words get in the way when spiritual reflection works better. Strolling down the cemetery road under a cold and windy overcast sky with the feeling of death beside us. The smell of dead worms and dried snails beneath our feet. The cold chill and the thought of death and the memory of the cause and the guilt of remorse. Having too much we may want to trade places with the name on the tombstone. Knowing that death is a place to hide. The dark tormenting feeling of addictions use will fade because there are no more reminders around us to keep the memory alive. Desperate for escape no time is wasted to plan a better life. Leave it all behind us at the cemetery before we make our exit. The choice is ours. The coffin is open waiting to lay our addictions life to rest. Watching the lid closing slowly the addictions life begins to fade to black. The key to lock the coffin is inserted and slowly turned for the last time. The addictions life will be dead and gone. Grief and remorse will die and happiness will be alive and well.

My epitaph will read:

“My addictions life is buried here in ruins as I enjoy my free and happy life”

see ya’ next time
