Interesting reasons to not drink?

Some time ago my sponsor was on a business flight during his first 6 months being sober. He had a few situations that had him quite agitated and when the drink cart was approaching he decided to have one. During the wait he noticed a woman opposite him reading the BB which immediately turned his desire off. That was over 40 years ago!


BE WELL

interestingly when/after drinking most feel tired/sluggish/dehydrated etc.. not drinking is usually the opposite.

That's what they call a God shot. It's when your higher power literally reaches out to you and stops you in your tracks. Love hearing that. Thanks for sharing.
