You describe in much detail your time in the restaurant in lovely Budapest. I can imagine it in my head, I can see how the wine fits clearly...and yes, as described it sounds very normal. Not just normal, beautiful.
WHAT if you'd had a glass of Peligrino along with that meal. Would that have taken away from the experience? Would it have changed your time in Budapest?
My point is: If alcohol plays an important role in your life...even if you are no longer doing embarrassing or dangerous things...BEWARE. Do we really NEED a lovely red wine to enhance an already beautiful experience? NO. The only people who do have a problem with alcohol.
Exactly we don't need it!!!
That is one of the reasons I stopped completely.
I thought "what is the point in poisoning my body if I don't even get the thrill of being drunk"
Not that being drunk is always a thrill but I certainly have had fun times while being drunk or on drugs
