| From "My mind's photo alblum"
I was looking through some thoughts I jotted down a couple of years ago. Here is an excerpt: "Why do we have angry, violent drunks? Why do we have happy drunks; sad drunks; obnoxious drunks? The answer is simple: alcohol decreases inhibition. The way the person is feeling becomes the way the person is acting out. The angry person at times becomes beligerent. A sad and depressed person becomes withdrawn. A prude becomes sexually out of control at times. In summary, alcohol expresses behavior and feelings a person would normally have the ability to supress. It is a real-life truth serum. It's the way to a person's heart because the mind is no longer in control." |

(Also written a couple of years ago) "All my life I've struggled to be 'normal.' I'm like a dog trying to become a cat. I'm like a fish out of water. I can't breathe. I'm just flopping around. Liquor is my anesthetic. God has administered it to me while he is operating. Taking it away is like a patient who is conscious during heart surgery. I apologize to anyone who is hurt if I die during the operation."
