What is that one thing that you did not plan when you got older

Becoming a heroin addict/drug addict. I didn’t touch any hard drugs until age 25. I was probably the last person you’d imagine that would ever touch heroin. Nobody plans to be an addict quite frankly.. I believe it’s something that is programmed in our DNA, environmental factors bring it to life.

You can make “plans” to rebuild your life but it’s much, much harder than you could ever imagine. I am coming up on a year almost for when I went to rehab, and in my plans; I should have a lot more than I do today. I will get it all back and then some eventually. However, what I do have?
