In my heart I am repeating this prayer. This man, a gatekeeper in the school has got himself addicted to alcohol. He has been warned by the school management and if he does not mend his ways he will be fired. As things are, alcohol has already got him in his power.The warning has not improved matters. He has five mouths to feed. His non-earning wife and four school going daughters. His losing his job will bring down immense calamities on them. A good friend in our church, with his own money has got this man admitted in a de-addiction center. The care givers at the center assured we can hope to find this man cured in a month. I can only say some words of prayer!

i hope he could finally realize whats more important to him whether his vices or his family. It's just a matter of realization. Addiction can be controlled with self-discipline.

I have spoken to him to help him realize his situation and take steps to correct his course. But he seems to have lost self discipline.

@franxav therefore, we cannot help a man who doesn't want to help himself.

He can only quit if he makes up his mind to quit drinking.

You're right. He has only made excuses so far.

Everybody knows that it is dangerous and harmful. Still, no one asks for its abolition Even the Govt., never shows any interest towards implementation of prohibition. They make it at times when the situations demand.

Govts and people in this business make money and so they look the other way.
