Jair

On September 12th would have been my friend’s Jair Levitt (ne Yankelevitch) sixty fifth birthday…

Unfortunately, Jair was so deep in his addiction to Alcohol that he succumbed and ended his life…

I keep wondering if I could have intervened… and saved him… but I was, at that time, so involved in combating my own addiction that I was unable to deal with Jair’s problem…

Well… I made it… over three years of sobriety… and I am proud of myself… proud of refusing to look at any temptation which will remotely lead to addiction…

Jair my friend, rest in peace… and may you find serenity in your eternal life…
