What addiction is

I have attempted to define the consequences of addiction and endearment in my blog earlier. Today's attempt is to define what any kind of addiction is. The inspiration for today's blog comes from a game that most of you must had played and have felt addicted to at one point or the other, #Temple #run. After I reached home and had spent some time talking to mom giving her the brief for the day and discussing important issues I opened my tab to write a blog but caught myself engaged to play the game again and again, not that I was not conscious or being care less for blog but just that I was still waiting for something to inspire me enough and as I played game one after the other I realised the definition of addiction, it is a state of mind in which you feel detached to everything around you including your worries or any other emotional or most practical thought process, it is a certain kind of meditation in which you concentrate on single task or single thing that helps you attain the state of mind of artifical and temporary peace and solicitation from the world. It is said to be wrong to have addictions for two reasons, one it is artifical state of peace and second it makes you numb while meditation makes you intellectual. Chose what you want to live and when.
