Writer’s Block: Expand on this

A habit is something that you enjoy doing it because you enjoy it and you are in control of what you are doing.  Addiction is something that you do because you “have to” do it.  Anytime it’s something that controls you and you have to do it because you can’t get enough of it, that’s an addiction and is not healthy for any life style.  We should be the creators of our own lives and not have something in our life that controls us and create our destinies for us.  Thankfully, there are answers to addiction and it doesn’t have to stay that way.  Addiction is something that can be conquered and overcome making that person that over comes it even stronger then what they were when they started.  There is an awesome Alanis Morrissette song that she sings, “The Only Way Out is Through.”  There is a lot of truth in those words and lyrics.  The only way to overcome something and gain power over it, is to work through it and not to ignore it or act as if it doesn’t exist.
