I think Grotty's comments on this are wonderful.
 
How we tend to beat ourselves up in an effort to not flow with life but become fixated in a certain point to live up to some image of ourselves. The problem is, life is a constant flux of change and so are we. It will change, we will change, and its very hard to make a stand on ground that is constantly shifting. Its like the difference between anchoring your boat in a very stormy sea, at some point it will get swamped, and sailing your boat so it can move lightly with the shifting waves.
 
 All we simply need do is go within and listen to our own inner guidance, check to see that what we're doing is no harm to anyone, then we can allow ourselves to flow with our constantly shifting energies, moment to moment without judgement that we should be one thing or another. Our bodies change naturally over time anyhow. It is more fun to be in the place you are now and embrace that fully than to deny any part of it.
 
I think the issue of abstinence comes down to fear, and control. We have a judgement about ourselves that we have to live up to some image and so we declare we are this or that. The only problem, once we declare that, the opposite becomes an enemy that is seen as something evil. Now we will see it around every corner until we finally learn that we are and always have been also that thing we are trying to avoid. But, isn't that all part of the process too : )
