I will never give up on the faith i have in people, although people may make really stupid decisions, or completly screw up their entire life.... I still have faith in them to turn it around and to make everything better. A very close friend of mine used to be a total druggie, he would smoke probably a good 8 times a day. He never went one second without being high, plus we would be partying every weekend with more stuff to smoke and drinking alcohol like it was water. It was horrible. Then, it became so bad he ended up leaving school for 2 years to go to rehab in Tennessee, he came back last year as a total new person. I couldn't believe my eyes, i got teary and started to cry. I was incredibly proud of him. Then about 2 months later we went on a church retreat and he shared to everyone how hard it was for him for those 2 years or rehab. He told everyone his deepest, darkest secrets and opened up to everyone around him.. which was his new family. He has been completly sober for the past couple years now. Why has he been sober, better and loving his life more then he ever as been?
Because i had faith in him.
