Day 6 Vis

Today listening to Mr. Rickey talk I learned just how hard it is to resist temptation. I've always heard about alcoholics, but I never really knew much about the addiction involved. I really learned how it's a day-to-day battle and one step in the wrong direction can bring you back to the start of the long battle. I also never realized how a small little drink can lead into such a big life ruining addiction. I was really amazed though that the people you love are the ones that will really turn you around. That having people hand you money on the street doesn't always help them get off the street. Some even learn they can make a good living just getting money on the street. I learned a lot about addiction on the streets and the struggles these people have.
