God said:
天父說：

Every adult is responsible for himself or herself. Someone who is addicted says that he can't help it. Addiction is a great excuse for not taking responsibility.
每個成年人都該為自己負責。有些人說上癮是不得已。實際它只是不負責任的一個藉口。

Don't get addicted. If someone wants to fall into a quagmire, he will find a way. If someone wants to be excused from self-responsibility, he can excuse himself directly.
什麼事不要成癮。如果有人想體驗困境，他自會找到一種方式。如果有人想要自己的不負責任得到諒解，那他可以直接原諒自己。

There is also no one who is not capable of receiving help and leaving the practice of addiction behind. Everyone is capable of it. Don't blame the addiction. Helplessness, as considered in this venue of addiction, is not true. It is a fall-back excusal from responsibility.
每個人都具備接受幫助和戒掉上癮的能力。人人能做到。不要歸咎到上癮上。就上癮而言，所謂的無助並非實情。那只是推脫責任的藉口。

If there is a way to addiction, there is a way to get out of it as well. Choose.
你能上癮，就同樣能戒掉它。只是選擇而已。

 
It could be said that addiction is the lazy man's way.
上癮是懶人的方式，可以這麼說。

Of course, there are those who are forced into addiction to the advantage of a third party. Nevertheless, it is the responsibility of the person who is addicted to get off the addiction. When you need help, ask for it. Yet it is yourself you ultimately have to depend on. Getting off an addiction is something you choose. You do have say.
當然，不排除有些人是被他人利用被迫上癮的。不管怎麼說，要擺脫它都是上癮的人自己的責任。當需要幫助，就發出請求。而最終能依靠的人只有自己。首先你要做出戒癮的選擇，這點取決於你。

Is it easy to stop being a patsy to any addiction? No.
從成癮的無力中擺脫，是件容易的事嗎？不

Necessary? Yes.
有必要嗎？有

Impossible? No.
不可能嗎？不是的。

Possible? Yes. That you have responsibility equates to opportunity.
有可能？是的。你的責任感等於就是機會。

Look, if you fall out of bed, you climb back in.
如果從床上掉下來，你會自己爬回去。

If anyone has gotten away from an addiction, so can you. So must you.
如果有人已擺脫了癮症，那你也能做到。你必須做到。

Find reverence for life.
去找回生命的尊嚴。

Restore yourself to responsibility. No one can do it for you. This is an occasion that the addicted one rises to.
重拾對自己的責任。這點沒人可以替代你。這是上癮的人需要做到的。

You are no longer a baby. No one has to prove anything to you. No one can. It is for you to prove your mettle to yourself.
你不再是嬰兒。沒人要為你證明什麼，也沒人做的到。你的勇氣只有你自己去呈現。

Remember Me.
記起我。

Remember love.
憶起愛。

Remember courage.
重拾你的勇氣。

Remember taking hold of your life rather than allowing an addiction to take hold of you. Don't fool around with addictions. You may think you are smarter than everyone else, yet you are making a choice. No one is the fairest of all. Be sure to look out for yourself.
去駕馭你的生活，而不是讓癮症駕馭你。不要再沉溺其間被它愚弄。你可能覺得比所有人都聰明，然而還是要做出選擇。沒有什麼最公平。你要找回的是你自己。

There are many kinds of addiction besides physical addictions.
除了實物上癮之外，還有其它形形色色的上癮。

There are addictions to anger. There are addictions to what is called love. It is not an addiction to love, of course. It is an addiction to dependency on another. There are addictions to pulling the wool over your own eyes. There are addictions to pretense. There are addictions to not seeing what is right in front of you. There are addictions to hopelessness and to helplessness.
有人沉溺於憤怒。有人沉溺於"所謂的愛"，那當然不是愛，而是對他人的一種依賴。有人擺脫不了坑蒙拐騙，有人離不開偽裝。有人就是看不到正面的事情。還有人於無望無助中不能自拔。

Get your will back. People can help you. No one can do it for you.
找回你的意志，別人只能給予協助，但沒人能替你去做。

Don't be sly. Be truthful.
別再狡辯了，要真實。

Addiction to food has an added layer of difficulty because you do have to eat.
對食物的上癮要難上加難，因為你需要飲食。

Beloveds, addicted or not, you are responsible. Lead the way. No more excuses. Oh, yes, there is an addiction to excuses. This is the biggest addiction of all. Excuses put responsibility everywhere except on you.
但親愛的，無論怎樣，你都要負起責任。走出一條道路，不要再找藉口。是的，藉口也會使人上癮。這是最讓人無法自拔的。除了自己，各種藉口會到處推卸責任。

There is no excuse for making excuses. This does not mean you are to blame yourself any more than you are to blame anyone else. Indeed, others may contribute, yet the buck ends here with you.
不要為製造藉口再尋找藉口。這不是說相對於別人，你要更多的責備自己。別人可能確實有份，但責任在你。

You are capable. That's it. You are capable of breaking out of the jail you make for yourself. You are capable of excelling. You are capable of moving forward. It is built-in that you are capable of great things. Then why don't you do great things?
你有能力做到。是的。你有能力打破你為自己設定的囚牢。你能夠做到卓越不凡，勇往向前。你生來是要做大事的。那為什麼不去做呢？

What excuse do you make? What excuses do you make?
還編什麼藉口？還要編多少藉口？

There isn't any specific thing you must do in life, you understand. You don't have to be a millionaire any more than you have to be a racketeer.
要明白，生活中沒有什麼特定的事是你要做的。一個百萬富翁不比一個詐騙犯來的更重要。

Live your life as best as you can. What you are capable of is unlimited. There are no one-way streets for you. There are no dead-ends for you. It is onward and upward for you. Swim.
盡你所能過好自己的生活。你們的能力是無限的。生活不是單行道，生活也不是死胡同。它應步步高陞。盡情暢遊吧。
