When I was in the military,
I loved to drink tequila.
It was inexpensive.
A couple of shots
would give me feeling.
Nothing.
But like I said before,
I realized
I was cognizant
that I was creating
more problems for myself
than I was solving.
I was solving no problems.
I was just putting them
to the side
and allowing for my body
to be affected
by so much alcohol that it was.
I realized that it was
completely counterproductive.
I stopped because I had
a good conversation with myself.
I didn't like the feeling.
The next day, I didn't like
being feeling dehydrated.
I did not like the feeling
of not having all my faculties
when I knew
that I had to be on point
to continue the next mission,
because there was going
to be a next call to action.
And I knew that my
inability or my
Intake of
alcohol was going to diminish
my reaction time,
my judgment,
and it was unacceptable to me.
