Its hard to fully articulate my Hakaros HaTov to the Ribono Shel Olam.
Before I was born, the doctors wanted to terminate the pregnancy (cuz was probs), and almost did.. bh HaShem decided that I should come down to this world.
And in the place, time, and matzav that I’m in.

Im sitting in my room, I got some dougies as Seudas Hodaa.
I was gonna be singing shiros etc to HaShem, but I’m just speechless...

Wow! That's an amazing story!

You wrote "they almost did". No they didn't. Hashem always had a plan. The doctors thought they had power, they had none. It was but an illusion. Hashem put you on this world to serve him, and by God, you are doing a mighty fine job! A true soldier of Hashem. One who seeks only to serve with every ounce of his being. A man who strives only to connect to him, and whose every waking moment is devoted only to his holy Torah. 

You are one of the most amazing people I know. You truly inspire me and many, many people daily. I'm so proud to know you, and to witness your milchemes hashem, and to hear your daily cry of "מי לה' אלי!"

Happy birthday! Heres to many more!

Been doing well with shachris, but slept through it today.
Yetzer: God hates you! On the day HE brought you to this world you spit in his face?!
HaShem is really gonna smite you now!

Me: I made a mistake, I have a Yetzer Hara (You!) and I failed. I apologize to HaShem, and will try doing better. I am still human.

And now chevra, I will go to my weekly chavrusa shaft with a guy in the Kollel here.
I will try to maintain positivity and optimism as I ride the constant turmoil of life.

Sorry if I bore you all with mentioning discussions between myself and the Yetzer.
I just find it helpful for me to be aware of every part of and every force within, my “Self,”
And recording it here is one of many ways I do that

Had a very good Shabbos BH.
I pushed myself extra hard to learn and was matzliach.
Took a short nap, had taiva to masterbate/touch, but bh
didnt.

Motzei Shabbos, I’d like to work out and learn.
Prob is I’m not so in the mood...
Anyway, gotta be vigilant cuz this is always a rough time.

Will be bkesher

My Yetzer’s having a hard time convincing me that I “need” to masterbate etc.
Cuz I’m like, lmaaseh he’s wrong cuz I haven’t done it in awhile and I’m doing great
