I will not drink today because, even though I only have 9 days sober, starting over again sucks.

I will not drink today cause this is the first day of my second year sober.

I'm not gonna mess that up.

And because I love feeling good when I wake up.

No good things about drinking and so many good things about not drinking.

... Even though for the first time in the 19 months since I quit I really, really had to fight the urge to head to the bar, at least get hammered and maybe score some dope. Absolute misery today but I know it won't make anything better.

because alcohol makes me act like a crazy person. I don't like that person.

...because there's no need to have a paralyzing hangover tomorrow and miss out on the important things I need to do, and more importantly, life!
