Boozy Chimp sent to Rehab-Vices Ruin





Ok, here's something weird. A Russian Chimpanzee has bee sent to rehabilitation to curb his smoking and drinking addiction.(I only heard of a tiger going to rehab,if you know what i mean) According to his zookeeper, he picked up his vices in the zoo, and that it was ruining him as his health took a toll and he harrassed visitors to quell his desires.




Funny right? A drunk monkey who's a smoker.But that isn't the key point. It shows one thing, vices ruin your life, whoever, or whatever you are. One perfect example of course, is golfer Tiger Woods. A few months ago, he was a role model to the world, but a few months later, because of his vice(in the form of his sex addiction), he has been "promoted"
to becoming the black sheep of sports. Now his marriage is in danger, his reputation in tatters, and his life turned upside-down.

He's been severely hit , with endorsements he took so long to get slipping away from him and loss of trust in him by many people in the world,he has hurt those that were close to him and almost definitely, he is ruined
.


Those who watch soccer closely would probably know about the recently fired captain of England's football team, John Terry, like Woods, his vice put his marriage and career in jeopardy. His marriage may have been saved, but he was stripped of his captaincy, and was told that he would never get it back again.

Worse still, the woman whom he had an affair with, was the former partner of his best friend, due to his vices, he has lost his best friend and affected his career, he has also shattered the unity of the England Team. He too, has been ruined, from my point of view.





Look at that, because of his infidelity, they have turned from best friends to enemies(his friend refused to shake his hand.)

Also, Gambling has been a vice that has ruined many. There have been many reports of problem gambling breaking up families. People who are addicted often chalk up large debts and burden their families.

Sadly, in spite of so many example of people being ruined and ruining other people with their "evil" vices, people still adopt vices and end up harming themselves.

On a final note, I hope that the chimapanzee would curb his vices and go back to being a good little chimp.

Please comment. :)
