#3

So yea... this is the actual list, and I'm on number 3.

What are my views on drugs and alcohol?

I don't like them. To be honest I just don't understand the whole drugs and alcohol scene. Now don't catch me wrong, I have no issues with people who do drugs and drink alcohol, it's just not for me for a few reasons.

1. Yes I have drank alcohol before, yes I have been drunk once, yes it was fun. No, I don't need to drink to have fun. EVER. My life is awesome, I have so many other interests and I get a kick out of being alive. I really don't need to drink to enjoy my life.

2. Alcohol and drugs are illegal. Pretty self-explanatory. No reason to open myself up to further drama.

3. It changes people. Sometimes for the better I guess, sometimes for the worse. To be honest I just want people to like me for me, and if you end up falling in love with me because of how awesome I am drunk then I think that's lame. Cool people are cool people... without drugs and alcohol.

4. Ultimately alcohol and drugs cost money. I'm not interested in spending mine or anyone else's money on alcohol or drugs.

5. They don't benefit you. They can't help you. You may have fun but I feel like the release I get when I longboard or when I DJ isn't the same type of release from stress or whatever you get when you're drunk. I get enjoyment out of doing other things for fun and they're less taxing on my body.

6. God doesn't want me to. There's a reason why authority is set up in my life. In Isaiah 5:22 it says, "Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine and champions at mixing drinks." It just isn't good for me and God has always kept me from it.

7. I never really saw the allure of drugs and alcohol. We have the gift of knowledge today ladies and gentleman. I can see on TV how this man smoked cigarettes for this long and died. I can see on TV how this guy was playing drinking games and has so much "fun" that he choked on his own vomit and died. Not saying this is gonna happen to me, but I can just see the harm it can do. Women get taken advantage of. Men and women sometimes get so sloppy they can't control their bodies. Not saying this is anyone, just saying I've seen it and it doesn't attract me.

I think you guys get it.

Keep The Peace
