“First I stopped going to restaurants that didn’t serve booze. Then I stopped going to the movies, because they didn’t serve alcohol. Then gave up on my friends who didn’t drink. It never occurred to me that my world was getting smaller due to my drinking.”
When you build a fence around yourself, you’ll wonder why people are afraid to approach you, because the pride in the fence is the cause of your blindness.
— Michael Bassey Johnson
As we became subjects of King Alcohol, shivering denizens of his mad realm, the chilling vapor that is loneliness settled down. It thickened, ever becoming blacker.
