We can control our own evolution very easily. And we are doing it

this weekend!

 

Well, addiction is the " state " BEFORE the chemical is taken.

 

So, for pain, when the state (pain) diminishes, the need for M

diminishes.

 

In Viet Nam, when heroin was used, what was the " state " that lead to

the use?

 

Fear? Escapism? What was it?

 

And, when they came home, was that pre-state still in existence?

 

Or do they now have a productive life, at least in comparison with

Viet Nam?

 

Addiction is a pre-state that leads to the chemical.

 

And our habitual " states " lead to our personalities.

 

And we can control and change our states for the better, AT WILL:-)

 

KOOL, hunnnn?
