I gave up drinking this month.

I’ve done it the past two years. The first year I got through the entire month without drinking. What helped me was really the shock from the reasoning why I was doing it in the first place (read blog 001). Last year I only cheated 4 times (lol).

As I approach the closure of the first week, every function I attend at night people pressure you as if youre doing something wrong for not having a drink. I have to justify myself for trying to be healthier. Justify myself for being able to keep my mind and body in check. Justify that I don’t need alcohol to have a good time.

Why?

Same thing when people go on diets and eat salads - we question why they would do such a thing instead of supporting them.

We care more about others then ourselves. That’s why.

I’m going to start uploading photos that I take current day to each blog below. Don’t know why.
