>>21667367Problem with alcohol is it's hard to stay at a steady level, once you begin relying on the actual substance itself for good times. You have to be a big eater and a big exerter to be a big drinker. Otherwise you're just circling the bottle.
As for life, I think a lust for power keeps us going. Only an unshakeable sense of powerlessness can lead us to ending it, that's why you need to make sure your emotions are real and not being heightened by something transient. The only end that's applicable is something like Brutus'. don't be a bitch and do it for something meagre.
