An individual has both a physical "self" and a mental or emotional "self." I will give you an example to illustrate this concept. Many people who wake up to an alarm in the morning often find it very difficult to get themselves out of bed.

Whether or not to consume alcohol has been a choice that man has had through recent history and is a choice which I believe should remain just that – a choice.
