Sober World

I am the founder of SoberWorld.org


#SoberWorldOrg is about reducing Self-Medication through Seld-Education.   

 It is not the traditional punitive program, it's simply about changing attitudes, reducing fears, building awareness, and empowering people towards better choices and avoiding self-medicating with any drugs whenever possible. 

 It's simply about looking at life and living happy and healthy like a kid again, stress and medication free. 

Why is this needed? Some well-hidden numbers....
  • Over 3 Million a year die from alcohol (WHO) 
  • $225B  in lost productivity in the USA alone (CDC) 
  • Tens of Millions struggle with Alcohol addiction in the US alone
  • One in 10 Working Age adult (age 18-65) in the US dies from Alcohol (CDC
  • Alcohol-related deaths in the US for kids under 21 are about 5,000 a year
  • Alcohol causes colon, breast, and cancers in 6 other internal organs. 
  • Alcohol costs EVERY taxpayer in the USA well over $1000

Happy UN-Thanksgiving

First of all, Happy Thanksgiving. I have a Brother in Germany who gets about six weeks vacation and half a month of government holidays. So today is one of the only times of the year where I can gloat for a few moments. He is working today, I am not.  However, that moment is very short lived. It's not in my nature to do that. I miss him and his family for over fifty weeks of the year. I wish they could share in the festivities of today.  This is a great holiday. One of reflection, humility, grateful thanks. It's loosely about the story of two vastly diverse cultures and peoples long ago who got together to share their food and their spiritualism. That honeymoon day didn't last though. The Indians got the Casinos and the Pilgrims got everything else, and now the pilgrims go to the Casinos and give it all back. This has always been a holiday of a stressful roll-up of a mandated short week (unless you work in retail). Everything "needs" to be done by 2P...

Perspective

Image
Like a trail of ants. I have a nice view from the 14th floor in my new office. All day long I see a stream of traffic ... heading somewhere.  I can't help but look at the lines of movement ... a steady flow of creatures, some larger, some smaller, but all following a trail somewhere. Like the little tiny ants I used to watch with fascination as a young kid; I see the same lines of tens of thousands traversing somewhere, knowing that each feels important in their own way, each has their own needs, their own lives, their own happiness, their own sorrows. Viewed from the 14th floor, you lose that perspective. You see only masses of motion. You forget that each vehicle, or human, or even the animals riding along; carry so many experiences, dreams and hopes ... from their perspective. It's all about me ... One of the great life lessons learned recently is that it IS all about me when it comes to interacting with other people. I have learned that if someone else upsets me,...

Hi - my name is Bob ...

Image
Taken from my Blackberry So I was out riding my bike along a remote trail the other day .. and an alien materialized out of nowhere ... - I stopped. A little startled, I didn't say anything.  He said, "Hey there ... nice day for a ride eh?". It was a beautiful day, I agreed with him, introduced myself, he told me his name was Bob.  So, not to be rude, I asked him "how can I help you?" He explained that physically, his species was almost identical. He could consume the same foods as us and metabolize proteins, and minerals and nutrients the same as us... that he liked Pizza and he also had an affinity for M&M's. (must be an ET thing). I shared my love of pizza and suggested he try Heath Toffee Bars ... Then he started asking about some items he saw people ingesting in various ways, inhaling, injecting and consuming in liquid form, that seemed to have no benefit to the body at all. Little or no nutritional value, in fact, many contained seriou...
