Hey guys, just thought id share this with you to pass around the "ruach." I was about to watch a movie... Now, a movie isnt all that bad, however, we all know what it leads too. Espescially since im a yeshiva bachur and there aint no excuse in watchin movies for me ( im a lakewooder deep down.) So i decided while the movie was loading, "u know what, uh uh. im goin on to torahanytime.com and watching a shiur. In that peak of hunger of my soul, instead of giving it gum to chew on, i gave it the real nourishment. And my neshama felt sooo good! I couldnt beleive i was finally feeling all of this pleasure. Raboisai! im paga becha menuval zeh....! It works!

Its funny but it is these actions that can actually turn a life around. By moving away when your mind has already made the decision to do something wrong something holy is happening. As Rav Dessler says... you are fighting at your nekudas habechira and winning that battle.

Never before have the words "Curiosity killed the cat" seemed more appropriate to me.

How many times did I check to see "what's there that I shouldn't see"? (as the SA White Book puts it so welll)

Nu. That's our disease, right there. Curiosity is a good enough excuse. What the heck...it's just a little thing....oy vei. For that 'little thing' we need the Borei Olam. Nothing else will do.

I cannot see that movie, I know that already, so I have not. And yes, I am the famous Dov...famous among all the perverts. Wow.

Wow, you're really the famous Dov? I've always wanted to ask you, that time when you came back to Noah with the olive branch in your mouth, where did you find an olive branch?

I followed the B'nei DaromTM cans strewn all over by the pushtakim in EY who were spared from the mabul to begin with...

Dov... Whats goin on, ur not a pervert, ur a tzadik. How many people in our generation can boast what u boast? Even the Tanaaim hakedoshim like Rava nad Ulla let mashiach come but let us not be there. What do u think they were refering to? The SA generation. And u out of all  people, u,a person who pulled himself out with the help of hashem is saying that he is a pervert? U can be a mekubal with ur potential!
