That's a chidush

"Battleworn" posted something really nice today on the forum to strengthen a fellow struggler: The fact that you are struggling is not a chidush (it's nothing new). But the fact the you're waging war against such a powerful force, now that's a chidush. And that you haven'...

A complete loss?

"Me" posted on the Forum:I saw in the Le'kutei Moran (Torah 25) an unbelievable Limud that pertains to all of us. (The following is my Hakdamah): We have our ups, and then our downs. Then we go up again and down again. Sometimes when we start to fall, we get depressed, an...

The problem was with my connection

Most Yidden go through life content with doing the Mitzvos in the same way that they were taught as kids, never developing a deeper connection with their spirituality. However, this struggle often forces us to realize that without a true connection to our ideals, even the...

Realized that I am sick

One of our members was once a hard-core addict in the worst ways and was sent by Rabbi Avraham Twerski to the SA groups. His life had hit rock bottom and having no choice, he joined the groups and worked the 12 steps program until it became his very "life-blood". He learn...

This moment is the only thing we have

Yesterday, two great warriors on the forum hit Level 6, their 70th day clean! They call themselves "BeHoly" and "Ano-nymous" - a Buchor. We are looking forward to making a big Le'chayim for them when they reach the 90 Day "Wall of Honor" chart. They both posted very insp...

Improve through resistance

Jack sent me an e-mail recently: We couldn't improve in any area without resistance to what we are trying to achieve. It's that push, that brute force, that makes us stronger. In martial arts theory, we see an enemy not as an enemy, but as a chance to perfect ourselves....
