Hi

Just a little perspective from davening which helps me. We ask in Hashkiveinu (in Mariv), that H'shm should remove the Satan from before us and behind us and He should enclose us in the 'shade of His wings'. A way I understand it in relation to our struggle, is that we're praying to stop worrying about what we've done in the past and what we could do in the future, all we want to do is to just bask in the serenity of H'shm's protection in the present. See principle 13 in the attitude handbook.

May we all merit to achieve this perspective!

Great vort!

wanted to share an insight
derech drush


HaNetunim b'tzaroh - the tzaros of evrey  day life which we seek to escape
U'vishivya - The captivty of addiction
HaOmdim bein b'yam -indulging in the ta'voh
bein b'yabasha  -"dry" abstaining

Tzorah l'rivucha learning how to deal with tzaros without escaping to the numbness of addiction

Afayleh the darkness of insanity (ruach sh'tus of following the Y.H.)
l'orah clarity in what the ratzon Hashem is for every step we take

shiybude-following the YH the addiction the Ale Zaar
l'geulah freedom from addiction,recovery, being totally in line with the ratzon Hashem
Anyway ,hope u enjoyed it even if it is not poshet taitch ,this approach allows us to keep the chevra in mind and daven for each other
