I do have a strong conviction that Alcohol is bad… “Al-Kuhl” and “Al-Gawl” is the Arabic word from which alcohol is derived. In its Arabic translation Al-Kuhl means: Body-Eating Spirit.
Yes, if you go and read up on this topic there is obviously a myriads of spin-offs and many discussions of who is right or wrong. But, Every time I allowed booze into my life “Al-Gawl” slowly started taking precedence in my daily routine. Although, I did not want to admit “Al-Kuhl” or “Al-Gawl” slowly removed me from God – my soul was slowly decaying.
I can also say that Yes I drove drunk… that was wrong of me. How I managed to get home safely or not killing someone in the process – only GOD will know. It was not right, but I did it anyway. Everybody I knew did it as well! Socially and culturally drunk driving was accepted and still is today! This must change.
All drinkers know or if you just started dabbling with alcohol – the allusive “BLACK OUT”… You never know when or how it will happen but if you play with fire – YOU ARE GOING TO GE BURNT! It is bound to happen to you.
What do you think this could be? Your body is still operating, but you can’t recollect anything… it is literally blank – “BLACK” – gone never to be remembered. If the ancient Arabica believed that when you drink too much you get possessed – taken over – taken for a spin by an unclean spirit; I would say from my experience this could be TRUE. I’ve done things when I was drunk which I WOULD NEVER HAVE DONE WHEN SOBER. Things I’m ashamed of – not to mention the things I can’t even remember due to the “BLACKOUT”.
Those around you now – they are also trapped in the same vice as you. Your life is out of control and you know it! You NEED HELP!
