John, my friend in his 70s who believes an alien race rules the world, explains how he’s immortal, and has lived numerous lives, and remembers all of them. I can remember two lives, barely. In my first life, I was someone who drank alcohol. I lived in a small mining village of 3,000 people, I worked on the railroads, and I spent my time drinking in the Wyndham Pub and my house, alone, or with a small group of friends. That life doesn’t feel like moonlight fighting for survival amid the rays of the morning sun. It feels like an abortion. A life, torn from me; so painfully, that my memory protects me by cranking up the volume on AFAF FM. I have a new life; one where I am someone that doesn’t drink alcohol. I am a vagabond. I interview professional poker players to pay the bills, and I help people save their lives in my spare time. I work hard, and spend my time playing with my family, or eating and philosophising with my friends. I didn’t compose a new tune. The new tune composed a new me. When I became someone that doesn’t drink alcohol I didn’t stop there. Incrementally, laughing Buddha by laughing Buddha, I made changes in my life that aligned with the energy of someone that didn’t drink alcohol. Environment. Career. Love. Health. Spirituality. Relationships. I don’t spend time with the people from my first life. I love some of them, others not so much, and I am sure if I were to see them again we would enjoy a nostalgic whale spout of a blow. But I don’t miss them. I hardly remember them. It’s as if I fell asleep on a bed of poisoned poppies and woke up somewhere and someone else. Jim Rohn proposed that you’re the average of the five people you spend the most time with. Jen Sincero said you earn the average of the five people you spend the most time with. I believe you drink the average amount of alcohol as the five people you spend the most time with.
