You could take the title to mean different things, but in this case I am mostly referring to when you get drunk. When you drink too much, all your inhibitions typically go away and this can lead you to doing stupid stuff.
If you are thinking I have never done anything stupid while I was drunk, then I ask you to challenge your memory or ask your friends who were there what happened since you may have forgotten. I remember now just about every stupid thing I did while drunk.
- I hit on a friends brothers girlfriend who was about 10 years older than I was.
- I drove home after drinking 23 beers.
- I got sick at Hammer Jacks in Baltimore MD and was mad at the girl I was dating and was ready to walk home.
- I walked home when I was at a night club in Catonsville, MD with the girl I was dating because she was mad at another person, but took it out on me.
- I passed out on a camping trip after drinking a 1/4 gallon of Jack Daniels because I was upset with the girl I was dating.
- I grabbed a friends boobs even though I did not like her in that way, but I knew her boyfriend whom I had to apologize to later.
- I drove with my kids in the car.
- I drove with my wife in the car.
- I have made many stupid comments and regretted them when I woke up, but those comments are hard to take back.
- I drove the speed limit, but was passing a bunch of cars. I got pulled over by the police. I asked him why he stopped me and he asked me what I had to drink and I told him it was grape kool-aid. He asked why I was passing the cars and I told him they were going under the speed limit. I think he knew I was drunk even though I did not drink alcohol or so I thought (The grape kool-aid had grain alcohol which you could not taste). He also asked me where I was going and I told pointed to the house and he told me to go there and stay there. I got inside and about 15 minutes or less I was out cold.
- I broke up with a woman whom I thought I was going to marry. I called her a selfish effing bitch on the phone. Then proceeded to head up to her place in New Jersey to make up.
- I got sick and pissed in a sink where I worked. I had to do lab work at 2AM and was drunk and did not feel like going down to the bathroom.
- I have purchased items that I regretted purchasing later.
- I have driven about 100 mph plus.
All I can say in all those instances, is thank you Lord for pulling me through. He has truly blessed me in ways I never really thought about. If you think about it, I should be dead or in jail.
I could have been easily arrested, killed, or have killed my loved ones. The Lord allowed me to live for this very moment to tell you my experiences and it goes above and beyond what is even described above. I think when you are missing the Lord in your life, you have a tendency to try to fill that missing element it any way you can.
