A unclear mind
Posted by admin on April 27th, 2008 filed in UncategorizedGrowing up my mom started drinking and well it became a problem, she was a mean drunk. I love my mom and have forgiven her for her poor chooses. Recently my mom called me drunk, you know I really didn’t know how to deal with that, part of me was angry with her and the other part was hurt. I felt like crying. I actually ended up giving my husband my cellphone to speak with my mouther because I did not feel I could talk to her politely and felt more like telling her off. Sometimes parents fail in what they are to do, my mom several years ago told me she stopped drinking and doing drugs because she saw everything she had lost and saw what she was lift with which wasn’t much.
There was a lot of healing during that time between my mom and I, but mom still had healing of her own which needed to be done, and still needs to be done. In 1 Thessalonians 5:7 it says, People who sleep, sleep at night and people who get drunk get drunk at night. This rings true for me, my mom often would go into work with a hang over, or not feeling the greatest, but at night at the end of the day is when she would get drunk. I have noticed that people who get drunk normally do it at night, very few do I know that drink all day long and are drunk the first thing in the morning. I almost wonder if the night time has something to do with it, maybe once everything is dark people think no one can see what they are doing, or maybe it just away to erase the day.
At some of the jobs, I have worked it bother me hearing people bragging about getting drunk and having a party. The famous thing I hear is being drunk helps us have fun. You know I have no problem with drinking and having fun, I just do when it get out of control and tears a family a part.
I have a friend who was telling me some of the games she has been playing, like beer pong, it amazes me how a tiny woman can handle so much alcohol in one sitting. I know a game like that for me would probably, not be a good thing for me, because I don’t drink but maybe if someone is drinking a lot anyways it probably not going to do much to them. I know at a young age I decide to never drink enough to get drunk, recently I decided not to drink at all because I am seeking the L-rd and well I figured I don’t need that right now. I need a clear mind and drinking can cause a unclear mind. I guess how I look at drinking as long as it don’t become a problem it is okay, but once it becomes a problem it is no longer okay.
