The forest and trees of addiction
March 8th, 2011
It’s unfortunate that some people look at substance abuse problems from their vantage point only – Everyone seems like them whether normal users, light abusers, abstainers, or hard-core alcoholics (recovered, recovering, or not).
The world is full of individuals arranged in loosely associated groups. Unless one can acknowledge that real, important, and consequential differences exist, all you’re seeing is a tiny little bit of the beauty.

Beware those who see multiple views, as you may easily put your self in a position to be attacked from all sides!
