Let them lend us a Lesson

Day 26 here, feeling pretty good! still have some risidual crappola, but all in all, feeling better than I have in years, and looking forward tot he next couple of weeks when it gets better.

Anyway, what I have been doing is watching like a ton of TV of course, who doesn't in this situation, right? I am so bored to death with it.... but at least I finally have the umph back to want to listen to music, so I ahve been watching all of the old 80's videos. The 80's was the peak of my musical interest, so I enjoy seeing them and thinking, "OMG it seems like yesterday I was watching this when it was brand new."  and so watching all of my old beloved stars I wondered, well what happened to this one, what ever happened to that one, and so I started googling them.
WOW

i would say about half I google are dead, and most that are dead got that way from narcotics. Either accidentally overdosing, or overdosing because they couldn't take the lows and the darkness of the drug anymore. THese were people with money, and with their whole lives in front of them, and the narcotics took it away, all of these incredibly intelligent talented people with money.....

What a horribel evil thing we face.

Lets take a lesson from them and stay on our paths. I there is a rock n' roll heaven, they sure have a hell of a band, and most of that band is there due to narcotics. (and coke, but mosetly narcotics)

Just makes me feel all the more less guilty, that htis can happen to anyone in any lifestyle with any income, poor or rich or in between, and makes me feel all the more powerful in that I have the sense to stop now, before I join the band .. I rather play here for a while longer.

hugs,
Lily

smartgilr, you are so funny, sure, be my groupie! LOL
yeah Pat, so true, and how this is a problem that has no confines, and background, any financial situation. I guesss those that have to quit due to finances are luckier than those that don't quit due to a money flow. Better off poor and happy than rich and dead, right? LOL, gee, how horrible is this stuff!

Thank God, on day ...27 I think .. yeah 27, feels good too. One more week should be even better.
hugs, 'Lily

So many of us had to quit because of money or losing family and friends.
Their rock bottom probably never came because it is so accepted in their world and most of them never had to worry about money.
I bet they never performed sober in their life.
