I wonder how the rates are about smokers and drinkers here...
I realized that I don't like alcohol, and even when I have any it is a few teenytiny (I mean TEENYTINY, REALLY TEENYTINY) sips sometimes, or hours of sitting above a glass of something so I won't feel it at all! (The taste of most of those I don't like anyway, rather a struggle to squeeze down my throat, so it's pretty much a rare whiskey&coke with my Master, or whatever else He is having... ^^)
But I do smoke, not store-poison though, only pure tobacco, casual and vanilla pipe tobacco mixed into a WONDERFUL smokable, sometimes cherry or both, and very often mullein, MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMMMMM...!!!!!! !! Did you know that it is good for your lungs? )
So I couldn't tell how many smokes I have, Master smokes only half of them, I grab the butts cause ad1 it would be a waste, ad2 I never have to care about filling any for myself, only for Him sometimes... (And used to smoke oregano with tobacco, half-half - oregano KILLS your throat, and it doesn't get you high or anything, just WONDERFULLY delicious and smells like a dream, makes me all calm and peaceful, not like a drug, just like some nice music let's say... ^^)
And no drugs... I have tried some before, I don't say they aren't amazing for spiritual purposes, but hate the way such things force your body and mind into a different feeling, and you can't just stop it whenever you want to (like alcohol), and am purrrrrrrrrrfectly fine without such experiences, my Master is the same too, so no such habits here...
What's up in your case?
