PERSONAL NOTE

A Moral Inventory is just a story – albeit my and millions of others story – and the messages are intended to bring the readers through this difficult process to witness the unconscious moral patterns in our society and in ourselves, as adults, which lead to untold misery and eventually war.

A Moral Inventory besides being a story - is a process – not to be presumptive – but it is our process and our unacknowledged message – it is and it is not about the characters or the story – it is about the initiation of the matter of morality – as you read you may or may not get it – I do not expect you to do any thing but accept this piece – if you choose to read it – fine – if not - fine – I only wish for your attention for a moment

The power of the story is a familiar communication adventure for all people who know of addiction and a vicarious educational window into the world of addiction and recovery for those yet to be devastated by their own or their loved ones’ illness.

We witness the principles of the patterns of thinking – the social solidity of denial – and the truth that addictions are nothing more than a misunderstood and untreated socially moral disease – we hear the voices, in the characters and their behaviors of all the truths of our adult social indulgences of behavior we allow and promote unconsciously to our children and young adults – some who, showing early signs of the illness, will absolutely become addicted - and they are either jailed, end up in institutions like rehab or learn to choose to live a sober and responsible life - - or die of their disease.

I offer this work as my intention to make a difference – to provide for the reader a very real journey into the world of addiction – to reveal and acknowledge what we, as the 21^st century adult culture on this planet are avoiding to discuss in our schools and are avoiding to responsibly teach our children – to notice we as adults set the tone and create the stage for the abuse of drugs so we can have fun – all the while we avoid how we really feel about our selves, our fears and our responsibilities to discuss and act with moral integrity.

Addiction is not limited to drugs – we are addicted to ignorance and avoidance – because we have not yet awakened morally and Spiritually as a global adult culture

We must Awaken, we must witness and understand that it is what we do that defines who we are - not what we believe or what we know or even how we feel inside.
