Nicolae Ceausescu smiles at me in his crooked ironical glasses and says, “Comrade, you better think about your lifestyle.” I nod, trying not to look foolish, as I am fully aware of my excessive use of alcohol on a daily basis. “You can always change your lifestyle,” he snaps. “And I’ll make sure you do that, along with everything else you do.”
At this point I begin to understand why my boss, Mr. Nicolae Ceausescu is always remarking on how things are going on my way and that everything is going to be fine, just as the new slogan goes: Transition Successfully! But then, I must admit, I am a bit jealous of my friends who live better, happier lives – no more smoking, drinking or doing drugs. They say that addiction doesn’t come from the inside, but I’d say that if my habits could be stopped, I don’t mind living a little longer so long as I am happy and healthy. Living sober has its perks.
A transition period in life is a good thing. I know because I have experienced one. Living sober changed my life for the better and I am very grateful. I hope it does the same for you. Do you want to learn more about what other people have done? Try Out our motivational programs below:
