Some rules are for others…

“Take it easy,” you tell your friend. “Maybe that’s enough.” “You’ve already had 5.” You care. You know that your friend will feel wasted tomorrow. Regretting the binge. Maybe wishing for a friend to give a soothing word, and encourage a glass of water and resting a weary head.

But comes Friday. You are alone. You don’t even count. To hell with tomorrow. To hell with eternity. You don’t care. You don’t care about the only person in the world you have influence over. Or don’t you? Who is the master here.

The lead rule: don’t do to yourself what you would not do to others.
