CCSHS; III – Kelvin: Drug Addiction Is NOT an Option
CCSHS; III – Kelvin: Drug Addiction is NOT an Option – A partial requirement for Health. PLOT: “Drug addiction destroys lives, tears apart families and harms society.” This video focuses on the effects of the intake of illegal drugs which concludes that illegal drug addiction must NOT be an option. The main character, acted by Stephenie Joyce Bullo, shares us her flashback and painful memories about her childhood. She was abused and she started to have hallucinations and delusions. Since then, she became anxious frequently and thought of running away from her problems by taking in illegal drugs and marijuana. Later on, the video views the present time wherein the main character enters the chapel to ask for forgiveness. As the lyrics state: “Give me salvation You’re the one I need… …This is my SOS screaming up to the sky Holy Father make us whole ‘Cause You alone can save our souls” At the end, she realized that only God could save her. Only God could save us from pain and loneliness. — Due to the effects of the illegal drugs, it made her really weak which led her to death. — So now, ARE YOU FULL OF PROBLEMS? Why take in drugs if God is only a prayer away?
