WHITE RABBIT



Remember this song?
A friend of mine let me hear this when we thought we were hippies...

One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small
And the ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything at all
Go ask Alice, when she's ten feet tall


To be honest with you I was never into drugs.
If you have seen my act you will know why J
I did not need anything to take me away from it all. I suppose I was able to do that all on my own through my music and comedy.
The last thing I wanted was to be out of control ... I wanted to be in control of my creativity.

Addiction comes in all forms – drugs, booze, and bad behavior.
Some folks think they have conquered one addiction only to replace it with another. There is also a new game in town called self-medication.  Wow, that’s a magic carpet ride with a prescription plan.
Even meds the Doctor gives you can take you there in a Nano second if you have that abusive tendency.
Sadly people will get all preachy about kicking the habit de jour and then start hitting da pills to get a high any way they can.
Why?
I suppose they have not truly dealt with the issues that got them there in the first place.
You can go to all the shrinks, life coaches and Gurus in the world and still you bull shit them all only to continue to feed the need.

The sad part is that the people who care about you are left not only holding the bag but also dealing with your incoherent bullshit. They will deny that they asked Alice and turned into the White Rabbit.
Yet you still forgive them and think you are helping in a strange way.


News flash--------- you are not.
You want to help them? Then disengage! Call their Doctor! Rat them out.
If not consider yourself addicted to bullshit.
You get to listen to their drama, there “ nobody likes me” – their paranoia the destroyer. You really think you are helping them?
NO!
I had a conversation with a friend of mine today that shared some issues about her brother. It was this roller coaster ride of bullshit and she never bought a ticket to the ride but was in it because she was the only one who would listen.
She told me that she was done supporting his habit and allowing him to use her as the soundboard.
It’s hard ting to do – but she did it.

I found myself in the same situation and did the very same thing.
It’s called boundaries~~~~~~~
The deal with boundaries is that one you make them you cant break them. Once they see they can manipulate you back into the land of the misfit toys it will start all over again.

So say what you mean – and mean what you say....
Remember that other saying, “ Love means never having to say you are sorry!”
Well that sure proved to be bullshit J
Just because you love someone does not mean you have to kiss his or her ASS...
Love is about TRUTH..
So stand you ground and stop being Alice.....
