Wisdom and Experience

Ethel was 34 on her eighth admission for withdrawal from heroin prior to the time of treatment centers and NA. She confronted me angrily, How can you believe in God? If there was a just God, would be allow you to do something when you're not old enough to know better and be cursed because of it for the rest of your life? We may question why we have our greatest wisdom when we are at retirement age and need it least. The Divine plan is for energetic youth to be guided by its wiser elders. Too bad this plan is not widely implemented.
