No Means No
There is one thing I am very proud of to this day
I don't drink alcohol and I am very proud to say
There are several reasons why I refrain
My values, religious reasons, taking care of my body and to stay sane
I have seen what alcohol can do to family and friends
DUI's, loss of jobs, are a few and it is a sin
I have always been in sports and stayed in shape
Alcohol can cause nausea and headaches
When drinking, you become someone else
You may become assertive, emotional, foolish and not yourself
Some drink to be social or like the taste
Some because of peer pressure or life's fast pace
But I still say no because this is what I choose
I live my life to the fullest too
