Addiction is a Faustian pact that we make by trading
short-term pleasure and relief for dire consequences
at a later date. Few of us, however, make the pact in
a measured way. Instead, we find ourselves at the

too late. Today I pray for those who are unable to be
honest with themselves – may they eventually find
