AA Thought for the Day

Occasions

Just one more thing about this matter of drinking occasions.
Many of us have had the guts,
if pressure to drink got unpleasantly strong,
simply to make an excuse and leave,
no matter what other people may think.
After all, our life is at stake.
We simply have to take whatever steps are necessary
to preserve our own health.
Other people's reactions are their problem, not ours.
