freethinking

paraphrasing Robert Downey Jr......I won't because i have plans for Christmas.

FT

Because I am committed to spreading the tenets of Nephalism throughout the free world.

Threshold

because it has nothing to offer me

neferkamichael

Because it just doesnt work anymore for me

huntress

...like church when I was young, I have had more alcohol than I need for the rest of my life.

lostbutterfly

because I just have no need for that kind of self-indulgence. Chocolate and coffee is all I need to fuel me in my quest to unravel the mysteries of nephalism!!!

Zencat

...because I want to experience Xmas cheer and not Xmas knock out from beer!

FT

Because my 20+ years of alcohol sobriety and 1+ year of non-opiateness are too fabulous to destroy.

And, I am a non-substance-abuser-Supreme-Nephalist-of-the-First-Order.

I will not drink today because I dont need it. I thought I was boring without it all those years and I needed itto be funny, but... I just jumped in my pool fully clothed and then did starjumps on the trampoline dripping wet fully clothed in full view of the highway..much to my childrens embarassment/horror..(I even did starjumps everytime a car went past) they said I was being boring today. DONT EVER CALL ME BORING.

Jboxer

Because I found this website and am SO inspired by all your posts. THANKS everyone, for reminding me of so many of the reasons I want to stay sober

I will not drink today because I will not throw away the past 16 days of sobriety including a sober Christmas. I will not drink today because I will not throw away my future.

Welcome to SoberRecovery.com Jboxer.

I will not drink/drug today because nothing good becomes of it.

NESfan

...because it's snowing like crazy and I'm going to have to get up way early tomorrow to deal with it.

(Hi, secular peeps!)

shockozulu

Welcome to the secular forums NESfan. I hope you like it here. Is the NES in your screen name short for the old Nintendo video game system?

NESfan

Sure is! I've been working on my meager collection of old video games/systems lately, so that's what I chose for my s/n. This seems like a cool subforum so far!

DrivenHeart85

...so I can try to figure out the highly complex and in depth world of crock pot cooking. lol

ARTEMIS

so I can go to work and be productive...instead of sitting there with a hangover counting minutes.

Driven that was really funny.

mazza

I am an athlete..and athletes dont perform well intoxicated.

Creekryder

Because I don't drink alcohol, period.

WantToHeal

Because the things I stand to lose by doing so are worth so much more than I high that I don't even get anymore.

Stay strong everybody!
