Same same. But different.

You know when you have had a bad day because......
your kids drove you crazy fighting, crying, screaming all day?
your husband wants to go out again tonight and leave you on your own with those same kids? AGAIN!?!?
your ex-wife wrote you 15 emails that made no sense?
your boss was an asshole and yelled at you for something HE told you to do in the first place?
you had a fight with your best friend over nothing?
you current wife hasn't touched you in 8, 9, 10 months?!?

your mother made yet another snide comment about your weight?
you snapped at your boyfriend for no good reason and now he is rightfully upset?
your financial institution called and wants money that you don't have to give them?
your car broke down?
you got laid off or demoted from your job and never saw it coming?
you got a call from the school and your kid got in a fight today?
you live with other family members who drive you out of your mind?
you passed someone on the street today who called you fatass?
your ex-husband has left you high and dry to raise your kids alone, and all he has to do is submit monthly payments and you get the job of being both mom and dad, good cop and bad cop?

And all you want is a drink? or a cigarette? or to get high? or have sex? or buy another useless material possession to pacify yourself and get back to a place of calm? If only for a moment?

Well that is the same sense of calm that someone who uses food experiences.

Same same. But different.

Just so you know.
And now, hopefully understand.

Have an awesome day!
