Sauratra is almost over and with it will come to an end a
100 days of cleanliness (which is close to godliness). Accompanying that would
be the Euro 2012 final and my 26th birthday.
When I say a 100 days of cleanliness I do not mean that I
have kept my surroundings clean for 100 days. That I have been doing for I don’t
know how long. I don’t litter. And I don’t like it when people litter. So that’s
that. What I mean is a 100 days of no smoking (up too) or drinking.
The EURO 2012 and my birthday falling on the same day as
Sauratra gets over is just good planning. For one of which I get the credit and
my parents for the other.
We’re almost there guys. 86 days and counting. I have successfully
stayed away from nasha of any kind for over 85 days now. Though I will admit
that there were some days when it was really hard for me to control the urge,
but it’s been a pretty smooth ride overall.
One very interesting thing I’ve come to realise is that the
frequency at which I used to meet some of my friends has gone down drastically.
No one’s to blame though. It’s just the circumstances. I do not think we are
any less of friends now that we were before. I get it. I don’t drink or smoke.
And that is the primary thing we do these days at any social gathering. Yes.
That’s the hard truth of adulthood. Don’t live in denial. We’re incomplete
without some kind of a high. To make our mundane social lives a little more
happening we need to indulge ourselves in copious amounts of alcohol or grass
just to tolerate the bloke whose party you’re at. Not saying that ‘acceptance’
is the only use of a high, but it IS one of the most popular ones I’d say.
But then again, as I said earlier, it’s not like I am never
going to drink or smoke again. It’s all happening soon. Maya will be back. Maya
Bar shall be reopened. And god willing there shall be a beer rain on the 2nd
of July, 2012 at 0001 hours. Be there. Gates open for all.
