My life moving from a crazy addiction fuelled past, to a more vibrant and meaningful present
`Hello World, I am a Multi Media Personality/Creative Artist. I love intelligence and laughter. Always optomistic, I believe all humans are at least okay. I enjoy many genres of film and music. I have a very deep awareness of my spirituality but care little for organized religion. I live by the motto "Do unto others as you would like done unto you.`` live and let live and enjoy the people around me. If this world was made up of the same kind of people, life would truly be meaningless. Embrace the differences of the people around you. Ignorance gets you no where. An open mind frees you to go anywhere and be anything you imagine yourself to be.-MARDI REID

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO TELL YOU...I FEEL THAT YOU CAN HANDLE A LITTLE SOCIAL DRINKING, BUT THEN AGAIN THOSE DEMONS CAN SEE THAT AS AN OPENING SO...
Well, as Socrates said, "everything in moderation." I do not think the problem is drinking in and of itself. The problem is if the alcohol represents some form of relief or sanctuary from emotional difficulty. There is nothing wrong with a beer or glass of wine to relax at the end of the day.
However if you are already fighting a battle with substance abuse, alcohol could easily sneak in the back door. So do not tell yourself it would not be a problem. Be honest with yourself! And follow your dreams! You say in your profile you aspire to entertainment. Do you do anything to pursue that? When you take away a compulsion or addiction you MUST replace it with a HEALTHY activity. All the best!
Thanks for joining my site, I really didn't know which one of your great blogs to put this on; anyhoo, please let me know if you ever stop thru NYC or Washington, DC. Loove your work/blogs; keep it up.
hey martin, for myself I thought a few years back as an example that a bit of week(which i dont like) would be ok because I was just booze and coke. Well i got away with it at first but then I got in that comfort zone, ie I am doing ok with this so a few drinks won't hurt. You know the rest of the stories.
I understand where your coming from. At the same time we are better off cooking a steak on a grill rather than hold it in our hands over the open fire, wouldn't you agree?
Take care
