<p>Our senses can notice that Fiestas Patrias, or Mexican Independence Day, is coming to San Diego.</p>
<p>Our eyes can see the green, white, and red, all over the place. Our nose can smell the Mexican food in the air. Our mouth can taste the flavor of the traditional dishes being cooked in our homes. Our ears can hear the mariachi sounds and the shouts of “Viva Mexico!” in every single event that celebrates Mexican Independence Day in San Diego County.</p>

<p>Many of us addicts took and abused drugs, alcohol, or some other kind of vice, such as gambling, overeating or sex to be happy. We didn’t like what was on the outside in front of us which reminds me of a story in a 12-step fellowship meeting.<br>
