Reason behind Action

With times changing it has become a compulsion to amend certain phrases and anecdotes of yester years, "Do good and do not expect anything in return" was taught, as the policy with which life had to be governed, today, even "Do good to expect it in return" looks bleak to abide with.
'Do unto others what you want others to do unto you', may it be good or bad. There lays a drive to every action made by man, a reason for everything man does. A layman lives, reacts or acts, the way he does, expecting the same in return. A human has different facets of relations, various behavioural instincts towards different individuals, he acts in the same or similar way he wants the counter part to deal with him. The driving force of life's actions is the expectancy of the same in return.

Why Intoxicate..??

From the very day God proclaimed "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness", the man of his image and likeness has been living in the quest to satisfy his mind. From the early days of natural intoxicants till this era of chemically structured ones, man has been quite successful in the search for his mind's gift.

The reason for intoxication vary from an individual to another. From what I think, the basis of intoxicaion is a battle of a human mind and a natural or artificial suppliment. The human mind in a subtle way wants to prove its superiority over the external suppliment. Its the ego of the human mind that does not submit to failure. The crave to find substances which could take him to a higher alter is in the expectation of the day on which the mind could tame the above. If there are things which do not end, I would account this battle to be one of them.

P.S. One particular trip when I was battling and I made my mind proud of myself.
