I see harm reduction as a way of engaging people as part of that path to recovery.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Half of the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm. But the harm does not interest them.
I should be more vocal about the things I believe are doing us harm, but many years ago in my early twenties, I learned a bit of a lesson. I started to realise at that time the benefits of eating healthy food and drink.
It's much more powerful and compelling to create a positive vision than it is to tear somebody down.
Sustainability is no longer about doing less harm. It's about doing more good.
Since my accident I am a little more mindful of the suffering of other people.
I still look at my job as being a doctor of the people, and I'm going to look at the science... If we can find a viable alternative that gave us harm reduction as people are withdrawing from nicotine, I'm happy to engage in that science and see if we can do that.
Perpetrators absolve their harmful behavior as serving worthy causes.
I believe in recovery, and I believe that as a role model I have the responsibility to let young people know that you can make a mistake and come back from it.
Suffering isn't ennobling, recovery is.
I do not understand rehab. If it works for people, then God bless them.
