thanks....but the words "video" and "temptation" are triggering to me (especially when they are written in BOLD LETTERS).

Is there some1 out there who (does have access to vimeo &)knows how to get a specific video from vimeo and put it up somewhere else which is NOT a "blocked" site???
I truly feel that this video is soooo potent for anyone who is in need of Chizuk against tmptations, (Is there ANYONE who Isn't???) , especially the GYE crowd!!

It would be a HUGE "zikuy Harabim" if this could be made accessible for all to see!

It's a gorgeous talk, the Rabbi gives here. Of course, he is not addressing addicts specifically. Yet it sleaks so clearly to Derech Eretz kodma laTorah and makes the case so strongly. Wow.

With Hashem's help, more of us who are flushing ourselves and our lives down the toilet will hear that self honesty is our first priority and comes before mitzvos and aveiros. It makes the meitzvos we do real. If we are clean and not 'falling', that's very nice. Without that, recovery does not happen, true. But since I am an addict, I will get nowhere until I humbly admit that I have already lost and am not normal like others and actually need honesty more than I need yir'as Shomayim.

If I do that, the road I will go on will lead me to true yir'as Shomayim, if I want it to.
