I am so much more present. I am so involved in the conversations I'm having with people. And that goes back to the mental gymnastics piece. If I'm drinking, all I'm thinking about is how much have they had? Can we get another drink? I don't know. Is it time? Am I having too much? And I'm just like, all I'm thinking about is the alcohol around me. Whereas this, I was literally surrounded by people drinking alcohol. I'm not. I brought my seltzer, I brought my water bottle, I'm having my burger, and I don't give a crap what anyone else is doing. But I'm involved in the conversation. I'm engaged and I'm just so grounded and so present and that I can't, I can't trade that gift in for anything.
