So last night was a little challenge for me as I was invited to yet again another party, I declined as I did not want the pressure of having a few beers. I really want to focus on training and running a really good half marathon. I find when I consume alcohol it adversely effects my training and weight. I got a good nights sleep, just ate a great breakfast and I am prepping for a afternoon run. I have some yard work to do later in the afternoon then off to work.
As a 24+ year alcohol free recovering alcoholic, I applaud this! Not sure if you are religious at all, but one of my favorite OT stories is when Potiphar's wife tries to seduce Joseph. Joseph RAN from the situation. He didn't hemhaw around, he didn't make excuses, he bolted. So fast that he left his cloak behind, and potiphar's wife used it as proof that he came on to her resulting in Joseph being thrown in prison. (Don't worry, even that resulted in it all working out for Joseph in the end.)
The point is to avoid temptation with every ounce of our being! Well done sir. I can be around it now and not be tempted, but there was a time when I would have had to just stay home too.
