I am your master now! (super nerdy comment alert) But in the words of darth vader to his son luke : You do not understand the power of the darkside, I have to obey my master. Now how i relate this to alcohol and drug addiction. It all starts off so innocent but before you know it you are slaved into a relationship and the substance now becomes your master. You will do whatever you can to get "said" substance and to please your master. Until the cycle is broken you will continue pleasing your master whilst hurting yourself in the process. Its been around 160 days sober for me and alcohol is no longer my master, my best wishes go out to all those struggling with addiction. Once again become your own master. |

Could be worse. One of you could start talking about Frodo and Gandalf. ;) |
Alcohol is totally like the Ring...lol...everyone knows that. I don't think I can come up with a Harry Potter analpgy though:) |
Master Of Puppets End of passion play, crumbling away I'm your source of self-destruction Veins that pump with fear, sucking dark is clear Leading on your deaths construction Taste me you will see More is all you need Dedicated to How I'm killing you Come crawling faster Obey your Master Your life burns faster Obey your Master Master Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams Blinded by me, you can't see a thing Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream Master Master Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream Master Master Needlework the way, never you betray Life of death becoming clearer Pain monopoly, ritual misery Chop your breakfast on a mirror Taste me you will see More is all you need Dedicated to How I'm killing you Come crawling faster Obey your Master Your life burns faster Obey your Master Master Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams Blinded by me, you can't see a thing Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream Master Master Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream Master Master Master, Master, where's the dreams that I've been after? Master, Master, you promised only lies Laughter, Laughter, all I hear or see is laughter Laughter, Laughter, laughing at my cries Hell is worth all that, natural habitat Just a rhyme without a reason Neverending maze, drift on numbered days now your life is out of season I will occupy I will help you die I will run through you Now I rule you too Come crawling faster Obey your Master Your life burns faster Obey your Master Master Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams Blinded by me, you can't see a thing Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream Master Master Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream Master Master |
Very good post, Itsme23. Dead on. You really **have** to make getting better top priority, and want it more than you want to indulge. Forever. |
Love the analogy and the message. I believe God is my "master", but we both can agree that alcohol/drugs no longer are and that's the main point. Kjell~ |
I think the substance is the dude at the bar that taps luke and goes "He doesn't like you" |
Thanks for the reminder my HP is my master to but every one has their own concept of a HP, some may be Darth Vader, although I know that was not what he was refering to. Peace ya all:a043: |

lol...Star Wars... that is a cool analogy. Never thought of that one. Some others I thought of are Snape from Harry Potter. And also vampires. They only come out at night and have an insatiable thirst. How is that not an addict right?? The ones in Twilight only eat animal blood and are "abstinent". Lol so corny I know.... |
