I believe that I and everyone else is capable of ANYTHING under certain curcumstance. I've seen and done too many things to believe otherwise.

Alcohol does lower my reasoning abilities and make me more suseptable to decisions based entirly on emotion instead of emotion only being one factor.

Part of looking as honestly and deeply as i can at my life and the effect of others on my life...was to realize that there are no people who are all saint or all monster and that we are all equally capable of the best and the worst...and that if I walked a mile in another mans shoes I would be that man (or woman).

This has been key to my sobriety as the insanity that led to my drinking was largly wrapped up in a very very deep misunderstaning of people and the world.
