I drink out of respect for all the lives the foul intoxicant has ruined. I wouldn't want their mistakes and the words of warning to fall on deaf ears. I also don't like the taste of the stuff and I think it shrouds our spirituality somewhat. I've never given into peer pressude in that sense and my friends and family accept my teetotality with great humanity. I feel fortunate that I was born into a group of people who never put pressure onto me to do something I knew wasnt right for me.
