Day 4: Adventurous Spirits

Part of growing up is all about having a routine. Our routine involves fun-filled weekends that, in some circles, are filled with too much alcohol. All along I have never thought that consumption of alcohol was a problem, merely a catalyst for fun. In the spirit of becoming truly adventurous and breaking away from the mundane repetition of routine, I see this 30 days of sobriety as an opportunity to break away from the norm and discover some new ways to have fun. I am still skeptical at this point. I know full and well that it is possible to have fun without alcohol being involved at all, but the point is that the high success rate of nights where it is involved are astounding. As of late, I have been increasingly aware of the 'aftermath' or the toll that I pay in the days following the use of our tasty, socially-liberating libations; getting older is lame. My curiosity extends past the adventure that is about to ensue and proceeds the health and mental benefits. Hopefully, we will reach the peak at our prime and gain wisdom that extends far beyond it.
