letting go

[SaraJ]

 

They say if you want to get over your hurt and grief, it is through love

 

So, here’s to you, my addiction to gambling:

 

 

 

I love that you showed me that there is more to life

 

than this pain, self-loathing and strife

 

I love that you even took me down,

 

So now I can get back up without a frown

 

I love that you showed me the light above

 

I love that you showed me there is More to love,

 

I even love that you are always going to be with me

 

As you will help me, and show me, what is important to see

 

 

 

And although I love you, I will not let it be,

 

You will not have the ultimate control of me.

 

And so, although I love you, I will now set you free,

 

I am going to be the best I can be!

Great poem Sara.
Gambling is like an abuse lover .
It doesn’t want to let us go but it doesn’t want us to be happy either – it just wants to control us and our suffering isn’t important.

I have looked at gambling in that way myself, in the past. And although I seen it that way, and would have never have went back if it was an abusing lover, I went back to gambling. Crazy how our minds work, isn’t it?
