For Me, Wine Is…
‘Only wine can soothe our unhappiness.’ This is a ancient Chinese saying. Wine is always regarded as a ‘soul-pain killer’, but does it only mean that? I am quite an alcoholic although I never drink to get drunk, wine means lots for me.
Most people drink wine when feeling upset. I like to drink when I feel desperate. Drinking of course cannot help to tackle problems, but at least, after drinking I would just feel sleepy and after having a good sleep, I can get back my energy the day after to continue my work and to tackle trouble.
To gain excitement is another reason that makes us drink. Wine appears nearly in every celebrations and parties. Surely, even if we don・t drink, we can still have a great time during parties, but obviously, wine can really create a more exciting atmosphere and makes the people feel more passionate!
Bravery comes, after we drink wine! Many actors in different types of movies drink before they fight, especially in Chinese films with involves martial arts. For many people, including me, when we are not brave enough to do something that we have no choice but to do it, we drink a bit to make ourselves be ．brave・.
I have a very good example to share. My friend loves a handsome guy for a long period of time but she dared not to let him know. One day we went for happy hour and after drinking some wine, she was so brave to call the guy and let him know how much she adored him. Now they are going to get engaged soon! How lovely wine is!
When we want to create a relaxing environment, we drink. In many events alcohols are provided, like cocktail receptions, ‘Table for Four’ dating, casual interviews and orientation. Wine is provided to create a less stressful and more relaxing environment, so that people can make friends easily. The atmosphere would not be that relaxing without wine.
Media and academy always go against drinking. Evidence shows that drinking too much really harms. Speed-driving, physical and mental illnesses and crimes may be brought about due to serious drinking. However, experiment proves that drinking a little bit wine every day can keep us more healthy.
To drink does not necessarily mean to err, what matters is always the amount you drink. Never rely on alcohol, it can soothe your pain, but cannot cure your unhappiness. Drink wisely, act wisely.
