Day 03 - Your views on drugs and alcohol.

Drugs an alcohol. I had been dealing with these topics before, and now I remember my English IV classes with Professor Alexander Ortiz. My best friends and partners, called "ua ja ja team work", by the way, and I, developed a research project at the university, to get deeper into the different reasons for students to use and abuse of them, and the diferent brands and kind of drugs consumed for young people in our context. Now I feel proud at us, because we really made our best, even when the grade does not show that. I mean. we did get involved into the topic, even when no one of us have ever consumed drugs and owr experience with alcohol has not been very close so far, at least Lida's and my experience were not so...

I think that we human beings, do not need to depend on how much alcohol is going across our vens or how high we are "triping" or "flying". I dissagree totally with the usage of drugs for stimulating our senses, mostly because it does not bring any well-being that can last more than a "trip". We need something that does not hurt us, but to make us feel motivated and intersted to live in the best way possible, a long, healthy life. Drugs  abuse is not that way.  They not only affect who is consuming fisically, but also affects  the mind, the social relationships, the self steem, the behavior, and also, and unfortunatelly, the people who are around the one consumer... becoming passive consumers as well, thus, everything in and outside the person turns into a very negative way.

About alcohol, as I wrote before, I do not drink too much, and I can say proudly that I have never been drunk. I do not think that alcohol is a bad thing, that is why maybe one day I can enjoy it a lot.  But I do not think that my happiness depends on it.  I can have fun, and I beleve anyone can do it too, without drinking beer or some other alcohol drinks. I mean, it has to be in our service, but us working  around alcohol, setting our emotional state based on alcohol, making it more important that it really is. We got to be in control about  when to stop drinking, what to do when we are drunk, drinking but with hig responsibility of what we do. I want to say, we can use it but not abuse of it. You know, excesses are never good.
