This was written today because I have someone near and dear to me that realized that they no longer need alcohol because it only numbs them and doesn't make them aware of what is really going on inside. They realize that they are a much better person without it and if they just take control of their mind and their thoughts and work through them with some help they do not need to numb themselves anymore. I am SOOO proud of them that I needed to share.
