Can Alcohol Conquer True Love?
By Jake Lovetarded
By all means, I am certainly not a heavy drinker. As a matter of fact, I
can count on my hand the
number of times that I’ve actually been shit-faced, or even on a slight
buzz for that matter. But,
certain developments recently have developed me only five minutes ago to
have a scientific
theory on the actual argument of mind versus heart. I know that scientists
would laugh in my
face at the mere mention that a body organ capable of, in their opinion,
pumping blood
throughout the vessels in the body. To them, I say, “Fuck that!” The
heart is the centerpiece of
the body, and without it, you would not be possible to function throughout
daily life...much like
the brain. It obviously possesses powers that cannot be tapped by science,
but by strict emotion.
The conscience, the soul, and the life is held tightly by the heart. But,
this brings me to the
question...which is stronger when it comes down to true love?
Many things can alter the heart’s function. Words, for example, tend to do
a lot of damage.
Actions by those you care about can also harness it’s full ability. On the
other hand, many things
can alter the brain’s function as well. Mental retardation immediately
comes to one’s mind,
however, alcohol can also distort a capable man’s thinking.
So, anyway...enough with the crap...I’ll cut to the chase. Basically, I
have totally true feelings
for a girl (who will remain nameless – I have decided to keep my characters
anonymous,) I
honestly believe that I will marry her, and all of that good stuff that
goes along with being emo.
I made a very big decision in my life just recently, which was to commit my
life to Christ, and
whether you are religious or no, it is one of the most awesome feelings
ever. But, a few days
ago, I did wrong and strayed away from my new found spirituality and had a
few beers. I have
never been even the slightest bit tipsy around a girl, and one of my
friends was there with
me...who was a girl. Needless to say, hand holding erupted.
I thought it was going to go further than that, but as I led her out to her
car, she was expecting a
kiss... but I just couldn’t do it. I don’t know if it was the fact that I
didn’t want to hurt her
feelings via a drunken debacle, or if it was the built up emotion for my
true love. Honestly, I
write these articles, making it seem like I’m Mr. Perfect Nice Guy, but we
all have our
weaknesses... especially when alcohol is involved. Upon thinking in depth
about it, this pastor of
the sermon that girls are indeed evil probably would have done something
frat-ish if I hadn’t had
this idea of true love in my heart.
Can I come up with a conclusion from this theory... that the heart is in
fact more powerful than
the brain? This experiment proved it true, but for all of us emotional
girls and guys... those of us
in touch with our feelings... probably know damn well that this theory is
indeed a fact anyway.
But, it makes you think, doesn’t it?
It also makes me think about college coming up. The temptation will ride
high... but will I truly
live up to my beliefs that a nice guy should be a nice guy no matter what
the circumstances?
Then, my friends, I will truly know if true love conquers all.
