Daily Prompt: Never Gonna Give You Up
by Krista on February 19, 2014
You. We know *you* are vice-free, dear Daily Post reader. But, or perhaps we should say, “butt,” others around you and in your life are riddled with vices: they smoke; they eat too much celery; they hog the covers; they can’t keep their hands out of the office candy bowl. Which vice or bad habit can you simply not abide in others?
~~~~~~~~
I wish I was as ‘perfect’ as you think me to be, Daily Post, but I have many vices, so I’m tolerant of a lot of vices in others. The one vice I simply can not abide in others, is being a drunk. I don’t mind someone drinking; I too tend to take a drink on occasions. It’s the drunk/alcoholic that I can’t abide in others.
I think it shows a lack of control, a lack of caring for the people around you that have to deal with it, and is totally disgusting.

Mama Bear,
“Never Gonna Give You Up”, is excellent and really hit home with me. Sometimes I feel like I am totally surrounded by alcoholics.
I thought you might like to see the four-part photography/short story series I just posted on my blog http://www.throughharoldlens.com on The Alcoholic: Dark Side.
Strong!
To the point!
A punch in the gut!
My hope is that the series will help someone, somewhere in our world.
