The Mind is the dictator of mood. The Mind that knows no boundaries only perpetuates its own self destruction. The kryptonite of this Mind is the noxious kiss of Insanity. Now Insanity gives a crumb of bread to its indentured servant, Pessimism.
Discipline the mind with Optimism because life doesn't move backwards and evolution requires a restrain of emotion and a dire accentuation of humility. Abandon your thirst for anguish and rejuvenate the jovial aspects of your persona. Do not be threatened by the veneer of Optimism but don't decay to the pull of Pessimism.

When I grow up...
Beware
child, in that house lives a cynic. He will trample on your hopes and
dreams. He will suffocate your motivation, reverse your drive, and
immerse your ideas with his evil statistics. Pay him no mind.
And one more thing...don't look into his eyes for you will only witness your own reflection twenty years down the line. For he is you.

Seductive Illusions
Champagne is the elixir of choice for the gregarious aristocracy. Red wine insinuates a hint of urbane mixed with an artistic and intellectual persona. White wine is the predilection of the dilettantes who treasure the mantra "carpe diem."
Competition and the superiority complex motivates all parties to deliver at the expense of the losers. The cheap beer consuming daredevils who swallow the rigors of a minimum-wage existence acclimate to the norms of their demographic. The dream of economical mobility or the desperate wrath of cynicism keep these folks from revolting.
Curiosity is the courtesan of the undisciplined mind. She pretends to be a non-alcoholic beer but her effects are nothing short of toxic. Curiosity is the murderer of our illusions. She is an unforgiving atheist. She leads us not to the gates of prosperity but to the dungeons of insanity.
Once you pick apart these illusions, Once you discover the hole in your infatuations, Once you succumb to the tyranny of your environment,
You taste not the wine nor the beer. You only taste the burn of the liquor.
