Live It

 Your name is part of your identity that does not require any action.  It is a given.  The name "Terry" is an identity.  I don't live or do Terry.  But "sober" is not simply an identity.  In fact it is not an identity at all. Someone might say, "I am sober."  I wait.  For what?  For action.  Sober is something one must live.  It is action, and not an adjective.  Sober people act sober which is way more than not ingesting a substance.  It is a way of life.  You live sober.  Otherwise, it is false advertising.
