One night in the House of Commons, Churchill, after downing a few drinks, stumbled into Bessie Braddock, a Labourite member from Liverpool.
An angry Bessie straightened her clothes and addressed the British statesman.
“Winston,” she roared. “You are drunk, and what’s more, you are disgustingly drunk.”
Churchill, surveying Bessie, replied,
“And might I say, Mrs. Braddock, you are ugly, and what’s more, disgustingly ugly.-But tomorrow,” Churchill added, “I shall be sober.”

Day #10
Last night i had my strongest urge since the beginning of the journey it was very very hard but B"H i was able to let it pas by like a small wave. 

Throughout the day today i had a couple of urges but nothing major, every time a nisoyan came to my mind i remind myself that i will have to post on GYE at the end of the day and i don't want to have to write that i had a fail.
Giving after your urges even  just a little bit wont help you but it will do just the opposite it will make the urge grow even more it is like someone that is alcoholic in a rehab and he decides that he will only drink one shot and that's it for the day that shot wont quite down his desire for more alcohol it will do the opposite it will make him want more alcohol, the same thing is with those urges when you give after it just a little bit you are like that former alcoholic in the rehab that only want to take one small shot but it ends up in causing him to become a real alcoholic again.

Day #11 today was one of those easy days. Nothing much really. I had a few thoughts but listen I am a healthy human being and that's how hashem created the world.I really can't believe that I am up to day 11. It feels like it is a dream come true after so many times promising that it is the last time, it finally came true. Thank you once again to the GYE family for your countless resources. It really helps me out. Instead of scrolling through some silly video feeds, I am scrolling through the GYE video library.
