I was on my way back to work from a frantic lunch of shopping as I passed a church sign that said, "Beware of the high cost of low living." Of course the meaning speaks for itself. There's not much need to expound but I decided to share my little spin on it. You definitely won't see this on a church sign. . .well, maybe. Here it is: Being skeezy ain't easy.
There are a few people that I know that love the bar life. They love chasing skirt and casual encounters are nothing. They have no one to answer to, regardless of who they hurt in the process, which is typically themselves. Every day is surreal. It's a haze. Their minds are so inundated with alcohol and promiscuity they can't even function. They live to go to the same place every night, look at the same people and drink enormous amounts of alcohol.
Don't get me wrong. I enjoy going out from time to time. I enjoy a nice dirty martini or glass of wine, but my life is so much fuller for having relationships rather than acquaintances and being able to remember the things that I experience without the effects of a hangover to hinder.
I'm not saying that everyone who hangs out at a bar is that type of person either but life is not always one big party. There are things that need to be cultivated to ensure that your latter years will truly be golden. I hope that these people that I know don't wake up one day and they're 35 years old with nothing show for it but an unimpressive long list of sexual partners and liver disease due to years of intoxicating themselves.
So you get all this because of a single sign that I saw on the way back to work from lunch. Imagine what happens when I read a paragraph.
