I need another drink...
I'm finding it more and more funny that self-destruction is an alive and healthy part of the human psyche. What in our subconscious wants us to fall? From smoking and drinking in excess, anti-social behavior, to cheating on significant others we seem to find some way to give ourselves a handicap in an otherwise pretty decent life. Is it an internal war waged against happiness and old age? Even I can't seem to overcome it for too long. The healthier I get the more I want to drink and eat. The more social I get the more I want to crawl into a hole and hide. On the surface I like hanging out with people and being in better shape but underneath it seems like there is another brian waiting, wanting to destroy all that the first chance I give him. What drives man to ruin what he has acomplished? Or is society built for us to fail? Does it run against the grain of who we are?
