Why You Do Not Need Alcohol

Scott  Odom
Alcohol exists for one and one purpose only - to ruin lives. Take a moment and let that sink in. Is it wrong for one to enjoy alcohol in moderation? Certainly not, but the good that alcohol does in allowing one to temporarily escape their consciousness for a short time is overshadowed by the harmful effects. Whether or not one chooses to admit it, the healthful effects are harmful and excessive consumption damages organs and causes us to age faster.

So, is there a way to escape the need for alcohol? Certainly. Respect yourself more and love the life you live. There are all kinds of beneficial things one can turn to instead of turning to alcohol. Alcohol companies know this, so they target the consumer with commercials of beer and beautiful
women or men to show that if you drink their product, then you will become the man or woman that attracts beautiful members of the opposite sex. But, why should you have to spend hard earned money to do that?

The simple answer is, you should not. Wasting hard earned money ruins lives. There are so many more important things to use that money on like food, health care, or even beneficial activities like dating. Men and women respond differently to relationships. But, the simple answer is, simply
drinking alcohol will not make you more attractive to them. For some, it as you get drunk, you will inevitably become obnoxious and end up turning them off. Now there are some that say wine can provide beneficial aspects and perhaps it can. But, if you are going to drink wine in thinking that, then
why not just eat grapes instead?

So, what else can you do differently? Go dancing. Engage in intelligent conversation with another person. Alcohol and intelligent conversation both stimulate the mind, but only one does so in a beneficial manner. Most men and women respond well to honest, open, and sincere communication. Not only does it keep their attention most of the time, but it will allow them to see the real you instead of who you are under the influence of alcohol. Regardless of what is said, money does not carry attraction. It proves that you may be able to provide security, but money cannot provide love. Do not
be fooled into thinking like so many are that simply flashing money will get someone to love you.

So, why does alcohol need you? Easy, without you spending money on it at clubs, bars, or at the liquor stores, they would lose business. These places just like the companies who make these products count on you to want this persona. People make money every day off others trying to convince them that they will lead a better life or have more women or men if they use their product.

But, the truth is they cannot make you have a better life or find a romantic partner. Only you can do that. And, only you can decide that you will no longer succumb to alcohol. One thing is for certain, you do not need it.
