I've decided that I can drink but not get drunk, so I limit myself to two in a sitting and more often it's one. I've talked with my pdoc and he recommends one and accepts two. He specializes in addictions, so he help me avoid the alcoholism that runs in my family.

It is said an Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence, to be ever in view, and which should be true and appropriate in all times and situations. They presented him the words: "And this, too, shall pass away." How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride! How consoling in the depths of affliction!
