“I thought of drugs and sex and partying as essential tenets of a well-enjoyed life. I had no idea it was possible to expect or rely too much on them. It was beyond my understanding that drugs or relationships could meet a need one day and leave me in want the next. Yet the more I had each of these things, the more I realized it wasn’t that they over-promised and under-delivered, it was that they were completely incapable of delivering or doing what I desired them to do.” — Michael J Heil
