Good for you Jeff. I really like your boldness say true dont compromise. And yes, we are naturally destructive, we know alcohol, smoking, and eating unhealthy are bad for us, however, we do it any way. There many ways people can be self-destructive, maybe not by doing the things mentioned above, but others things such as being a "work-ahlic" and neglecting the loved ones or being slaves of lust, and jealousy which things that bound the spirit are much worst, that those that are from the flesh.
