1. I was getting no relief from drinking and I came to realize the biggest contributor to my suffering was drinking. I have no illusions about myself here, if drinking was still working, I’d still be drinking.
2. God does not want me too….errrrr, thats not it
….I have some things to learn before I die. If life has a purpose, then discovering what that purpose might be, surely must be part of it. Besides, I am happier than I have been for decades, I feel healthy and vigorous, and I enjoy breathing in and out.
