So what's Your Poison?

There's a saying that everyone has atleast one vice.. one bad habit, .. a desire to do something destructive.

Think about it, there must be something you do, that you know is not in your best interest, yet you continue to do it.

Some smoke, some drink, some sniff and some inject, knowing all too well that each time they do, a part of them dies. Hell why talk so extreme, some eat, some spend money, shopping, girls, sex, cars, bikes, mobiles, accessories, everyone finds something to indulge in.

So why do it? why do we intentioanaly do things that harm us? there has to be a reason...

For me, I do a little bit of everything, and then some. My favorite poison is work.. so I started thinking, why do I work so much? what is the reason i continue to do so knowing all too well that's it's harming me?

For me its very simple, its a getaway.. from things that really matter, from things that make you think and worry and measure everything around you.

Thats the reason why a boring guy turns into an interesting drunk after a few drinks, cause now he's let go of all the crap in his head... that's what happens to me when I work, there's nothing else to think, no worries no tensions...

Anything we do is insignificant in the bigger scheme of things, but to me, the bigger picture is too big for me to handle, I'm happy looking only as far as my next step at a time.

Ask yourself .. What's your poison?
