There is deep truth in what you write, friend.

There is joy to be found in living like you describe. 

Life without constantly fumblingly engaging in feeding lust by fondling the edges of indulging..... Life free of the suffocating, shackling blahness of consistently spending hours in yucky emptiness - that unrequited "itch" left frustratingly unscratched, at the end. Free of the hopeless promise in the endless mindless scrolling just up to the brink, only to cycle back... Free of toying with the urging surging.... 



When I felt what such a life can mean - I caught a glimpse of the חיים of דרכיה דרכי נועם. You are encouraging me to keep it going...



Keep inspiring us!

I think today, the Sorting Hat would put me in Slytherin.

All those dark voices are hissing so loud, I hear almost nothing else!

They hiss and urge, "come on, who are you fooling? you know you can't do this forever..."

I post this to remind myself, it's time for a little connection (although I'm not in the mood!) and a tiny Prayer, (even less in the mood!)

And of course, I need a little chizuk!!!

Not the chizzuk pro, but your honesty over here is inspiring and opens the path for us all to talk about our struggles as well

At the risk of a serious cliche:
"It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." "[The sorting hat] only put me in Gryffindor," said Harry in a defeated voice, "because I asked not to go in Slytherin…" "Exactly," said Dumbledore, beaming once more....

More later - gotta run...

True! same here...back in the day I would read it endlessly, probably also as a way of escaping...

Along with some other things, such as:

​The tons of other books I've read 
Computer games
Videos
News
Food
Radio
GYE (sometimes)

And many other things.

Although for some people, it can simply be something they've enjoyed and not necessarily an escape that equals sex addiction....

By the way, in case anybody out there is wondering...no, I do not walk around with Harry Potter underwear....

It's just my little 'ole way of adding a little levity to the serious task at hand. 

Hold on...did someone say "Task"?

So @redfaced is probably one of the Weasley children, maybe Fred/George
@youknowwho is obvious
@cordnoy i think is Snape, 
@chaimoigen looks to be either Sirius or Lupin, his love and eloquence.
@gevura Hagrid based on the size of his truck.......

the question is who am i?
