Try to
imagine a life where you can’t live without drugs and are so addicted you can’t
stop. I have always wanted to be healthy
and wanted to be active and to be fit my whole life. Sometimes I wonder to myself what it would be
like for those people that can’t breathe, can’t talk and have to constantly be
in and out of the hospital.
As a child I
made a promise to myself, to my family, and to the people that count on me, to
never even think about starting drugs, alcohol and tobacco at all. While growing up I have had the best friends
that a girl could ever ask for in my life and could never imagine drugs taking
control of them. If I could make one
promise in my life that would be to be DRUG FREE.
People might
ask, “I wonder what a glass of wine or one cigarette would taste like?” This is what I say to that, “Why”? People think “Oh, trying it once won’t hurt
anything,” but they’re wrong. Trying it
once can change your life forever.
If I could
change one thing, it would be to make all drugs, alcohol and tobacco
forbidden. If you think about the people
that are so addicted to drugs that they would do anything to get their hands on
just one cigarette or just one bottle of beer.
How would they be able to live life, have a good career, or be a good
role model to their kids? I would think
it would be very difficult if they let drugs take control of them. To me, all I can say is, “Why did you start
in the first place?” Most of them would
probably just say, “I didn’t think trying it one time could ruin my life
forever”.
