  Not destitute enough

  Lola was destitute for now, but she knew her destiny was for better things. Many men still found her desirable, despite her frequent problems with depression. And she knew that she could descend no further than where she was now. Her only destination was up!

  Depleted of energy, however, she told herself that she first deserved one more hit of heroin. So she stood up, and in one last act of desperation, went over to the derelict house where she knew she could get some drugs. When she arrived, she deposited herself in the first room next to the door and began to design her argument for one last hit.

  When the police deployed to the house to arrest drug dealers burst through the door, she was the first one they designated for arrest. In the police holding cell that afternoon her situation became even more desperate when her body began shaking uncontrollably. They moved her to a hospital to restore the nutrient depletion in her body.

  Lying in the hospital bed, Lola listened as the nurse told her that she could not deprive herself of normal food any longer. Her physical descent had gone too far and her health was now critical. The nurse depicted her situation to her so strongly that Lola finally had the desire to beat her drug addiction and start life over. She knew that she had to finally derive wisdom from this experience.

  The next year, when a beautiful woman walked in to the hospital with a bunch of flowers, the nurse didn't recognize Lola. But Lola recognized her; she walked over, hugged the nurse and thanked her for saving her life.
