I woke up, feeling a bit fatigued, and a bit tired, but... when I woke up I remembered all the old boozing... and I got a cold water from the fridge, drank it and felt ... great, the relief taking over my body, the cold water slowly dripping off my chin and dousing into my stomach... and when I was done, I realized... what the hell was I thinking when I abused my stomach and body with 10 beers during my drinking days when I could be doing this? What's my point all? Perhaps just a different perspective.

So you see, everyone... change and happiness is possible sober, it is, really.
