You don't know what pain is....

Submitted Story:

The old man: Always in his travels, he  passed the bar. Each time he saw the same person layed out upon the grass, passed-out from the influence. The old man surprisingly cussed like a drunken sailor, but then with a quieter demeanor, he spoke with a message. How unbelievable it was to hear his story that we have a shepherd who came to lead us to salvation.

He started returning to the bar frequently. He knew he would find the person lying on the ground. Each time he would take off that person’s shoes, and with a stick, he beat the bottoms of his feet, until one day the intoxicated being- pleaded, “Please don’t hit me anymore I never will drink alcohol again -  for the rest of my life!”

Dear David: Most likely we are headed into what I believe to be  a very long period of (decline) of Humanity. There are many things, alcohol, being one of them-that has destroyed whole families. There are two bars, and a meeting house for people here, and it has a bar in it too. With the exception of high ideals there is no easy choice in helping the situation. When there is an industry, with money to be made, that supports the agenda from the government down to the private sector- there is a problem. It is a battle, and a controlled audience that is whisked away- in a war for the soul.
