resolve - most don't have it

the only time of the day he could quiet the noise was the second the bottle was empty. then it was temporary silence. until of course another bottle was consumed. he wondered if it was possible to silence the pain without the bottle. but those thoughts lingered only shortly. he knew there was more out there. but to reach it seemed absolutely impossible. and it is. this world seemed too sad for him. as if he belonged elsewhere. he often pondered this. felt too deep for this life. it wasn't really for him. the liquor only confirms this ideation. and of course everyone in his life had opinions too. do this. don't do that. move here. believe in our God. get new friends. endless "answers." but he couldn't help but notice something. all of the ones with the opinions had no better luck figuring this life out themselves. they simply surrendered to the fact that "things are the way they are." but, this isn't enough for him. he wants the answer......or he wants out. pretty simple actually. makes more sense than most. i guess it's called RESOLVE
