Everyday I get deeply hurt when I see us individuals living abusive life. We can be abusing alcohol, freedom, money, good people and list goes on and on. But to be more specific, my attention real get caught by abuse of alcohol and freedom in all the areas of my work or I can say where I spend much of time. It even starts in my own family. Where I see my own biological mother who is into alcohol big time and really abusing it causing a lot of costly damages around the family. Where it affects the whole family or my younger brother getting himself into trouble for that. I see a lot of guys getting into unnecessary accidents or violence which costs their life. Most people when we tend to have problems it can be hopelessness, poverty, abuse, sicknesses, any historical setbacks, any victimhood, we think it will be better when we forget about it by drinking. It makes things worse. What can fill that void of pain in our hearts. Alcohol and freedom abuse? Nope? Definitely no, I see my own family at home going from worse to worst. What hurts most is that we who are coming from poor environments we think when we drink more and splash on alcohol is cool and we will be respected around our communities. It can a type of insecurity.  Actually is holding us back not to grow but rather be wasted and self-deceived icons in our communities. I think we must start drawing a line in our abusing and I know no one is perfect.  We rather starts doing something in our life positive and be good examples. Looking at the root cause of where we are in life and look at the way forward. What is sad is that we who are coming from disadvantaged communities we spend much money on alcohol and be wasted and the rich spend less and and with a different motive. Please have a look at the picture below (I will upload it later) and see the guy in Cape Town drinking down his sorrows and at the end of the day he becomes a joke in front of everyone. And for stupid sake he is a father with his daughter lying next him. How much damage are we causing out there. What are we planting in others.
