I suspect that it is part of human nature to be addicted. We crave ecstatic connection and to fulfil our destinies. The important thing is to get these addictive qualities healthily tuned so that the human experiences beautifully described below are enhanced not sabotaged. Immersion in the bioelectric magnetic aura of he earth and naturally entheagenic nutrition are a couple of major things that align our desires to our true happy nature.

“Addiction is much more than a psychological or physical reliance on substances or behaviours; it’s a physical, emotional and spiritual issue that puts blinders on our perspective, corrodes our value systems, and compromises our ability to prioritize normally.”
Over time, as addicts or loved ones, addiction becomes the most important priority. And in order to continue fueling its demanding and ravenous needs, we must sacrifice other important aspects of our lives.
relationship - the way in which two r ore concepts, objects, or people are connected, or the state of being connected.
success - the accomplishment of an aim or purpose
time - the indefinite progress of existence and events in the past, present and future, regarded as a whole
gratitude - the quality of bieing thankful, readiness to show appreciation for and return kindness
happiness - the state of being happy
hope - a feeling of expectation ands desire for a certain thing to happen
spirituality - a sense of connection to divine intelligence and purpose
I would also add novelty - humans love new experiences and to experiment, this takes the courage and wherewithal to operate outside our familiar scenarios.
