Destruction
Why does a person destoy their life by drinking from the time they get up in the morning until almost bed time most every day? What causes a person to shut off the real world to only be creating their sense of reality from a bottle of beer? How does one begin to help a person see how they are destroying their life with alcohol?
Why do I feel like all I want to do is strangle and shake my friend just so that he will realize that he has destroyed so much in his life because of drinking? Where do I begin to tell my friend just what a horrible friend they have become because they have lost all respect for themselves and the people around them? How do I help my friend see that he lost his job, his family, and now begun losing friends because he can not function without a bottle of beer sitting in his hands?
I know I can't save the world or even anyone else in it besides myself, but it just angers me so much that someone I am good friends with is creating a huge path of destruction like a tornado that tears through a midwestern town in the springtime.
I just needed to vent and this seemed like the only place safe enough to vent.
