Good day my fellow Nairalanders.....Hope each and every one of y'all is doing okay?

Well,I just remembered the first time I tasted palm wine and what it made me do......

It all happened back then in 2017.... During that time,I was working in a bakery and we were about 10-15 workers in total.......

Oh,Let me don't forget to mention the fact that if you really want to see different people from different spheres of life,then you should take your time to pay a visit to any bakery situated in a ghetto vicinity......Most times, we'd fight and insult ourselves,but las las, we'd still come together to do our work...... Before now,most of us,the workers were already fed up with our boss' attitude to work and his inability to increase our wages despite the hardwork we were doing......But no one would dare utter a word or be bold enough to make a formal complain before the boss himself ....

So on that fateful night, a colleague of mine who just recently came back from his village brought a bottle of chilled palm wine and shared it amongst us........That was how I kept drinking, and I didn't know the outcome would be brutal........

On that same night, I walked up to my boss with full boldness and yelled at him, telling him about everything he has been doing to us and I made sure I insulted the hell out of him....and the only thing I could remember was that he kept shaking his head... . I spoke to him like a man, and on behalf of my colleagues . The last thing I could also remember that night was a good friend of mine who was also my colleague, dragging me off .

That was how I managed to stagger home.......I never knew what I had done, not until the following morning....That was when I realized that palm wine had made me lose my job . Shame couldn't make me to go back and apologize to my boss so that I could go back to work......I leant my lesson from that day.........And I also realized that alcohol generally wasn't meant for a person like me......

Since then,I swore I'd never taste alcohol again so my brothers and sisters,have you ever been a victim of alcohol and what did it make you do? Let's have some fun my Nairalanders..

It may be a lie to you but alcoholics and drunkards have done worse things throughout history which they later regretted...

Drunk drivers have killed countless souls on our roads ....

It made front page… even though I don't think he's lying.

We don't need to ruin ourselves to cope with life…
That is like committing suicide to escape pressure.

Hmm

What did you do after alcohol

You are actually compounding the challenges by drinking and smoking, temporary relief, long term effects. Not worth it.

Palmwine?
Nah only gin, white drink or spirit fit make me behave like this, even beer no fit

Nemesis are you a 77 fellow
You dey smoke SM?

There is a reason why the Bible refers to it as a MOCKER

A question on Palm wine.
The Sweet one, the one from Raffia and Oil palm, "Ọkpẹ" Palm wine, Tapped when the Tree is collapsed Tree, is generally known & proven to be very good for the eyes.
The one tapped from swamp, "Agbe" Palmwine, is that one too very good for the Eyes?
Does it help? This I have not confirmed

Na wetin dey your mind you talk
Na shayo give you the moral to talk am

What shayo cannot do does not exist

Alcohol in moderation is inspiring but drunkards are danger to themselves...u could commit suicide accidentally when drunk like the Brazilian couple that died in a hot bathtub...every thing in moderation for me is the key..I crashed my car after drinking in 2020 ,car I just bought in 2019...it cost me more than 800k to repair it and since then I restricted myself to a glass of wine every weekend

Just understand n approach life with practicality,engage in sports reading etc.

Never been drunk to stupor✌️ Anytime I feel like getting high from alcohol, it’s always in my bedroom and I don’t smoke but I manage to keep my hopes high in turbulence 😎

I read books and also listen to music.
I don't like any idea that makes me lost Money

That's what you think. I've never been bothered about not taking alcohol all my whole life

fyneboi79:

if you adopt a practical n realistic approach to life,you can overcome many things easily,for instance,is it practical n realistic for a man who don't provide for the family to expect respect?,or for a randy man to expect his woman to chaste?,mind you it's human you are dealing with.

How many alcohol dey palmwine? I was drinking beer last night and ended up wondering if there's still alcohol inside beer sef
