When You Feel The Pull

of your Drug of Choice.  Try this.

Don't think about how much better you might feel.  Its only temporary anyway...  What, maybe 4 hours...
Dont think about how much more you could get done.  Same thing, only temporary...
Don't think about yourself...

Find one of your kids and if you don't have kids, your significant other and square up to them and look them straight in the face.  They are proabably going to look at you strangely but then imagine how they would look, if something "really bad" happened to you.  

And then pray for strength...

If that isn't enough to make you change your mind, I don't know what is.
