I see no misinterpretation. The literal meaning is there to see. It may not fit in with the others, but it is still there and it still applies. Also, you consider "wanting to be with your family" to be unselfish because you do not see it as self-serving, correct? And an addiction must be self-serving. Have you considered that while of benefit to others, it also benefits the protagonist? The fact it helps others does not negate the benefits you receive. And a person's faith is one of the easiest to relate to an addiction. It's just a parallel that is avoided like the plague due to all the negative connotations. I have seen many faithful whose relationship with God often leaves them elated, or at least at peace with all around them. Funnily enough, the only others I've ever seen like that are junkies. Next time you see someone having a crisis of faith, take a good look. Everytime I've seen it, they've looked like they're going through withdrawal. And before you cry foul, it does have its benefits, so no matter how pure it may look, it can become an addiction and it often does. An addiction is not necessarily a horrible thing, however it leads to extremes which can lead to horrible things. Just because something seems wholesome and pure does not mean that one cannot become addicted to it. Anyway, we've gotten perhaps a little too off-topic. This is perhaps a discussion that belongs in its own thread. Back to the little girl who played to death. See, there's a good example of true dedication :rolleyes: |
