Compunctions

Apologies for the drunken ramblings in the near future:

This is a shorter post relative to the previous, although no less poignant.


Why is it that you have a greater compunction to help if you're inebriated?  Why is it that you require alcohol to feel compassionately towards your human man?  Why is it that you only feel compassionate once you've had a few?

I really don't know.  Could it be that your ability to rationalise overrides your ability to rationlise.  Could it be that your rational self thinks too much.  Is it only if you're inebriated that everything becomes clear?

I think it's relative to your ability to empathise.  Your abilities to relate to your human man override your need to understand why they need money.  You give because it's the right thing to do.

Is that so wrong?  I personally don't think so,

At least in this state of mind...

  1. I don't think that the inebriation is the direct factor in influencing your empathy, more that it's always there (if you're a well round person that is). The alcohol merely lowers you inhibitions about breaking out of your comfort zone by extending your support or help to another person.
