Everybody Gets High! It Just Depends On What
~1.4 mins read
You could get a high from anything.
 
Deprivation, Sleep, Love, Coffee, Alcohol, Marijuana, Religion, Exercise, Clothes, Parties, Music, Movies, Romance, Work, News, Food, Pain, you name it. 
 
For the extroverted, it's meeting people, and for the introverted, it's searching inside that brings this feeling.
 
Anyone who knows the feelings that getting high on substance brings would tell you that you could get the same feeling when doing something you enjoy. Say Running for example, people get some kind of high from it, I do too. (Definitely, they are people addicted to exercises as they are people addicted to many unimaginable things)
 
I also get the feelings of high from reading materials that appeal to me. Talking to people I can connect to, praying and meditation also brings this feeling. Not only ingested products.
 
Highness is mostly a feeling of bliss but it can also mean a state where you loose control of your emotions and physical functions. In general terms, highness is simply happiness after you have gone over the somewhat dizziness phase especially if you have to ingest something like Alcohol. 
 
I usually feel high before falling asleep and when waking up in sleep deprived states. 
 
If you don't believe that the action you enjoy that looks harmless is actually getting you high, ask yourself how long a break you can take away from it.
 
Human beings are built to get high, we are built to be happy 😊 or sad!!! It's only the divine who has transcended this level
 
Dont regret getting high, but make sure your source doesn't lead to destruction. If you can't function with your choice of highness source, change it to something you can work with and so don't force people to use your own type of highness source.
 
Get High guys! Get high!! It's your only escape.

What Is Self Control? My Experience And More
~2.1 mins read
I went to the Restaurant today! I was hungry, plus I had been feeling drive-less recently.

Ordered a plate of food to take home, because I was too down to even cook. Then I noticed the Alcohol 🤩 in their fridge. 

Honestly felt like I needed some to help my mood, atleast temporarily. I did ask the price, got the money and was ready to pay. 

It was gonna boost me, alcohol really would make me feel different, I am pretty sure of a short but worth the while benefit with alcohol, any day anytime.

You won’t believe it, but I did chicken out of getting it ☺️.
I call that self control, don’t know what you call it, unmanly? Weak? Asocial? Poverty? Erm? Whatever?

I was able to give up:
1) Some pleasure I thought I needed more than anything else at that moment
2) Some pleasure with an obvious short term benefit
3) Some pleasure that demands spending and continuous spending to maintain.
4) An energy drink (literally)

I was able to control myself. We all need self control to achieve at different focuses. I mean, I could make a list, but let’s refrain as you keep in mind that you need that self control EVERYDAY, EVERYTIME.

Edit: 
It's been three years since that piece was written. I ll like to share with you that I have learnt more about self control. I hope what I learnt amazes you.

I have learned that the best self-control to give isn't the resistance of food, liquor or sex. It's isn't denial of your feelings or the status quo, but the acceptance of it, then finding a way to live through it becomes profitable. It's not the denial of thoughts or obvious feelings, it's is the control of thoughts and feelings (accept what it is and how you feel about certain situations, yet be wise enough to control the reactions of such feelings.

The best of self-control is the resistance of the self. Your self. Your very own heart (Ego itself)

The best of self control is achieved when you:
1) Completely accept your past with happiness (the good and bad of it)

2) Accepting today that you are in control of very little (and so you are practicing detaching yourself emotionally without neglect of duty to those around you or your environment because up till this point, we have ignorantly messed our destinies with our hands)

3) And attempting to create the future with best unbiased knowledge and analysis you can muster (because what you do for the future is what the future would do for you)

You ll find that many "good" people (myself inclusive, that's if I am even considered a good person) find it hard to break that paragraph even. 
We regret/cherish the past - it's gone.
Many are control freaks and believe that they must succeed at everything they lay their hands on and create the future with as much biased knowledge they can manifest.
