Life is full of obstacles and challenges. For the most part, these obstacles are placed in our lives to help us grow and become the person we are meant to be. Sometimes when life throws things our way, it is a test to see how well we handle it. Drinking and using will never help me get to a positive outcome. We can't handle situations in our lives by trying to escape them. If we want to reach our potential in life we have to be willing to have Faith in the process and welcome challenges by dealing with them head on. Don't trick yourself into believing that using will fix anything. It always makes things worse.
