Holy crap. I can't tell you how true this is. I am 600+ days sober after 20+ years of drinking heavily. My life is a complete 180 from before and my health has greatly improved by abstinence.

I will NEVER say that I will never drink again, but I have a good shot at staying sober for the rest of my life.

Question is: Why gamble when you have a good thing going?
