Goodbye Marijuana, Alcohol, and All the Rest
By Pat F.
Rehab Centers:

After 30 years the time has come to say goodbye. It’s not you, it’s me. I can’t deal with you anymore. We had some good times in the beginning. Lots of partying and the like, but somewhere along the line, it became too much.

When we first met, it was great. No more feeling blue. I began to feel like I was included in something. I was too young to realize that I had chosen the wrong path. Slowly, imperceptibly over the intervening years I left all of my other passions and devoted myself solely to you. Aviation, music, art, socializing, high school graduation, college, friendships, and so much more went by the way. All for you I did this.

I see now that you had become the stealer of my dreams, the great corruptor in my life. For you I have lied, cheated, and stolen. For you I have lost my morality and sacrificed my self-worth. I have given countless hours to you that I can never recapture. Time I should have spent doing those things that would have bettered myself and my world was spent in folly with you. We were something together, weren’t we?

So with this in my mind, please know I will always remember you but I am setting sail for a new destination and to this new land you may not accompany me.

Of this I am sure, but not sorry for it, you will find another. Goodbye.
