Answer by Pastor
A wise person once told me that addiction is the pursuit of happiness in the absence of freedom. It is when you are always trying to get that first feeling of a drug or substance, but you can’t stop. Someone is addicted when no matter how hard they try they can’t give something up on their own, and then they rationalize why they can’t do it.
