Negativety has always been an issue.
Negativety seems like it has such a gigantic following. It takes a person and if left unchecked basically by the person themselves will become a way of life for them. It's such a slow and gradual happening that a lot of time's it remains unnoticed to even family until all of a sudden all are tired of dealing with it. You are very strong in your will and desires enough to recognize the symptoms and pull yourself out to a level that will sooner or later if not all ready take hold and become a living attitude. By living I mean, thoughts won't start at a negative side where in the past had to be dragged to a possitive side. They will start from just a thought with niether good or bad but the quest to give the topic a chance to be good at least. Soon after that all thinking will just start at a postive level. Alcohol takes your morals, and logic and distorts it to where the mind thinks it unnesesary to use, maybe cause it hurts at times. Thats life. A person becomes unwilling convinced that it's easier to drink than not. That way of thinking in itself can become the addiction. Try keeping your mind on a positive and steady course no matter what anyone says or does and I think you'll find that lifes conflicts will never be a matter again. Cool testimony.
