drinking away sorrows

one drinks to forget sorrows but one must not forget that when one is drunk, one is prone to get hurt. however, if one is to remember this, one would not be drunk in the first place. drinking to forget one's sorrow is harmful to the health so there is no point in getting hurt while doing do. one would claim that one is not out to hurt oneself but when one is in the greatest pain, one would feel nothing. one would also claim that being alone, there is no one to worry for one. one maybe right. there maybe none today but that doesn't mean that there isn't any tomorrow. there is always someone out there worth to be taken care by one. if one can not have the person and one cannot drive away the sorrow, the only solution then would be for one to send the person away. hide the sorrow and do not let anyone know about it. if possible, one should not even let oneself know about it. to forget is the best medicine for pain.

when one is unhappy, it is alright for one to be drunk. the greater the pain, the slower you drink. one glass at a time, one glass after the other, let it hurt. after that, one will feel tired. when one feels tired, one would by then be very drunk. when one awakes, one will feel better again. this is how one will drive sorrows away by drinking.

by drinking hastilly, one will drink quickly, collapse quickly and forget quickly. as such, i am afraid the pain would not have hurt enough and when one awakes, the cycle would just restart again. what is wasted is not only the wine but one's time and thoughts.
