"We're addictive creatures. We try things, we experiment, we explore, and certain things hook us. They get their tentacles in us, and we can't get away from them. What started out as freedom can quickly become slavery. Often freedom is seen as the ability to do whatever you want. But freedom isn't being able to have whatever we crave. Freedom is going without whatever we crave and being fine with it".
What's the thing that started out as freedom for you, but now has progressed into slavery...or is mastering you?
Shopping - clothes/shoes/electronics?
Food?
Pornography?
Sex?
Exercise?
Drugs?
Alcohol?
Self Harm?
Other?
Rob Bells Book 'Sex God' - chapter Leather, Whips and Fruit is a winner about this stuff! I recommend it.
