My Threads: Glad to be here Don't slip it hurts Lions & Tigers & Internet, Oh My! --"ולא המדרש עיקר, אלא המעשה" --"To promise not to do a thing is the surest way in the world to make a body want to go and do that very thing." Mark Twain --"If, when you honestly want to, you find you cannot quit entirely, or if when drinking (or lusting), you have little control over the amount you take, you are probably alcoholic (or sexaholic)."

הסיבה שיש דברים קשים העוברים עליך היא בגלל שהאדם חושב כי "אני עומד" שהוא מנהל הכל,
ברגע שיתן הכנעה כי השי"ת מנהיג הכל אז כבר אפשר להתמודד עם הקשיים. שמעתי מאדם גדול If life is a LEMON make LEMONADE Thank You Hashem for every moment of Sobriety! |
