[QUOTE="bèlla, post: 77645697, member: 416395"] Yes He did. :) We were indoctrinated about excess in our formative years in school. We saw films about Woodstock, the hippie movement. Every month we watched a couple and by the end of the year we'd covered a lot. I wasn't attracted to that lifestyle and always felt it would shame my family and compel me to do horrible things. We drank alcohol but that was it. I saw the downside of going beyond it. I remember visiting an acquaintance in my late teens and they were doing laundry in the bathtub because they spent the money on marijuana. I was so dumbfounded by their stupidity and reminded them they wouldn't dry in time before their mother got home. I didn't offer to help and left. I learned a long time ago that people rub off on you and there's things I don't want to be around. Character and ethics are really important. I'm not the kind of person who'll befriend someone cheating on their spouse or doing underhanded stuff. I can't co-sign it and it's tainting me. That restricts my connections to some degree but it reinforces virtue. When people are making a genuine effort to love the Lord and live honorably it makes a difference.
