    I am not going to drink today.

    Sara - Thank you for posting such a beautiful poem. It resonated with me on so many levels and is such a powerful reinforcement as to why I will NOT be drinking today.

      I'm not going to drink today because I'm on my way to a much better life without alcohol!

        Hi everyone! I've decided I will not be drinking any AL today. Before I stopped drinking, I was in the depths of despair and wanted my life to end. Without AL, I want to LIVE. One drink would start that whole miserable cycle over again. So...I just won't take the first drink. Simple as that. No excuses.

          The is no such thing as "a drink" in my historical record. I am living quite happily without alcohol so why mess with success!

            I'm so touched that you liked my poem. Thanks again for saying so. It was written in a moment of true gratitude, and I guess that comes through.

            Tonight I'm grateful for this site and this thread. I had no wish to drink today, in spite of having a rare evening alone with Hubby. He fixed himself a cocktail and I was not even jealous this time. I really feel that sobriety is healing my brain and my body and my soul, and I have no desire to go back to damaging those things! I remember all too well that even a few drinks of an evening can lead me to feel more depressed. I have been so happy lately...not gonna screw that up with wine!

                  What might have been is an abstraction
                  Remaining a perpetual possibility
                  Only in a world of speculation.

                      I am not going to drink today.

                      Nope, no time that I would rather spend drinking instead of something productive.

                        Alcohol. What a complete waste of my precious time, precious mind, body, and spirit.
                        No time or desire for drinking here. There is far too much living to do! AF life is incredible.
                        The magic and the treasures just keep on coming.

                        What a gift.

                          Not for me - feeling fabulous and not ever wanting to compromise my new life - never understood just how good it would be!

                            I'm going to stay sober in the bright light of sunshine today. I'm not going with AL to the dark and ugly place. Not today. I'm grateful there are so many of us making this decision together, one day at a time.
