So many people here have said stay away from that first drink. That is so helpful and important to remember too.
Good message! It reminds me of this quote by Charles Swindoll:
"We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude...I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you...we are in charge of our attitudes.”
Drinking will numb us for a bit, but the problems don't go away.
