Is It Worth It?

By Lisa M. Scuderi-Burkimsher

Paul dolefully sat with a bottle of whiskey. He couldn’t control his alcohol and it cost him his job and family.

He stared at the divorce papers on the kitchen table and desperately wanted to rip them up. He promised his wife Sarah he’d get rehabilitation help.

Paul stumbled across the room to the liquor cabinet. He took out another bottle of whiskey and was about to drink it when he tossed it across the room. He passed out and when he awakened, the quiet empty room was all he had left, and it was all because of his drinking addiction.
