ALCOHOL: can’t solve our problem
…IN MY recent visit to Zambia, I was left in awe, after discovering that a lot of young people spent a lot time in booze. Not blaming them because too I have been a victim before.
No amount of alcohol is enough to wash away the problem we encounter in life. The bitterness of circumstances we regrettably find ourselves in can’t be turned sweet by the better waters of Babylon.
It’s a pity that so
many of us still seek refuge in the better stuff whenever life gets
hard. Traditionally, men are not supposed to cry or ask for help. People
have learnt to try and deal with life’s problems by self-medicating.
When you lose your job or get divorced, what easier way to deal with it than to drown your sorrows in booze? Taking about it can also be tough, but it’s better than getting drunk and feeling bad afterwards.
Don’t hide your problems, rather say you need help and tackle life without fear, it’s better than the bottle. Not every tea bag is everyone’s cup of tea….
