I
have observed that there are several websites FALSELY claiming ownership of
this article; but, of course, since the original author is UNKNOWN and the silhouette
PUBLIC DOMAIN; such claims are fraudulent, and completely illegitimate.
I
drank for self-confidence and lost it all. I
drank for strength and grew weaker. I drank to make conversation easier and
slurred my speech. I drank for happiness and became unhappy. I drank for joy
and became miserable. I drank to appear “cool” and became “Uncool”. I drank for
sociability and became argumentative. I drank for sophistication and became
obnoxious. I drank for friendship and made only enemies. I drank for relaxation
and got the “shakes”. I drank for sleep and woke up tired. I DRANK TO FEEL
HEAVENLY; ENDED IN HELL. ~ Al (Alex-Alexander) D Girvan.
