Dealing With Yesterday

Reading those harsh comments from a message board regarding Whitney Houston's comeback as a singer made me realize the tragedy that substance abuse brings to one's life. As a recovering substance abuser, I understand that I'll always be labeled with it. Unfortunately, Whitney will have to suffer more because she's a famous person. What people need to know is that it's done. No one goes back once the true desire to return home sets in. Some do it again. But, those times you did it before can't be revisited. It's not for anyone to suggest it ought to be undone. Yesterday was a one-time thing. I'm very happy that I'm done with it. I'm happy that Whitney's back.
