Addictions

Everywhere in the world people are faced with all kinds of addictions: drugs, alcohol, pornography, over-eating, under-eating, and many others. These addictions can control a person's entire life. Why is it that the human mind and body are so weak? Why can't we all just have the self-control to say NO!!! I have never struggled with any of the above mentioned addictions but I have struggled with the addiction of procrastination. I can't ever seem to make myself do something when it needs to be done. I have to wait until someone gets mad at me for not doing it. For example, I don't have a full-time job anymore other than staying home with Kayden. Jonathan works all the time and yet I can't manage to keep the house clean because I'm preoccupied with playing solitaire, messing around on Facebook, or other useless activities. Then he comes home and gets frustrated with me because I haven't kept my part of the bargain. If I stay home I keep the house clean while he works to provide us with what we need. Every time this happens I tell myself its the last time and I will do better, but the next week comes and I do the same thing again! If all the people in the world that are struggling with the addictions I mentioned have as hard of a time with their addictions as I do with procrastinating then I really can understand why our world is so messed up! I don't know if this makes any sense whatsoever but I was just thinking about this and had to vent a little. But now I am going to actually stop talking about my problem and go start trying to fix it.
