My mother had a cousin who used to stay with us. He changed my view on alcohol. He's a mild-mannered man, very agreeable, except when he's drunk. He usually drinks Tanduay Rum. He's not really violent when he's drunk.

He's a pathetic drunk. He cries, and tends to prostrate himself on the ground asking forgiveness for his sins. He's very insistent on having anyone forgiving him.

When you're a little girl of 8, this is a scary site.

To this day, an alcohol smell takes me back to that weird drunk relative of mine. I'm never impressed by anyone who drinks alcohol. To me, they're that pathetic relative I have. I never want to have anything to do with them.

I'm fortunate that my husband also does not like alcohol. If there's a God, he's surely looking out for me when I was choosing a husband.
