Thanks for doing this

Dear Friend,

Thanks for taking up drinking, social as it may be. I know how hard it is to keep away from it for long. And with all the pressures from friends / colleagues and the tension in office, this was bound to happen.

I am sure you would have resisted it to the best of your capabilities. But now that you have started, why keep it to the realm of office gatherings / occasional meets with friends? You should plan in a way that every other night, you get an opportunity to have atleast some of it. I am sure you have enough acquaintances that will give you company, and would encourage this behaviour.

I was extremely happy to have heard of this new habit of yours from someone. I see that you have changed, and we all know that change is good. As they say, this is something not to be missed in life.

In case you care, I can't say if our friendship has strengthened now, but I will hope and try that the status quo remains.

Your friend.
