You can't just go buy a rav in walmart. How do you just get a rav? andsm1 wrote: now i am married with 3 kids and i only now struggle with both taharat mishpacha ...........mostly lack of knowlege because of a lack of a rabbi i trust... ...its not that i dont trust rabbis i just dont have a keshr with any rabbi who i can see as a mentor yet If your life and your marriage depends on it you'd travel the entire country to find one No rabbi is perfect, but if I think I'm more perfect than all rabbis... Even a rabbi that has dealt with his lust issues may be of help (see oisvorfs thread I bumped last night) Also many of us can do with a personal coach / counselor / therapist, and because it's pushed to the back burner we land up in very hot water Each man to his own truck, but I don't have lifeguard training, only towing... Whoever doesn't have a close Rav - go get one! Whoever has - Hatzlacha! |

Rabbi Rav Rebbe Cordnoy wrote: In conclusion: if there is one idea that everyone associated with GYE can agree upon (and yes, i mean you as well), and if you would ask yourself, what would be the number one advice you can give someone, or what would be somethin' that can help another get out of this mess? I believe the answer would be to somehow get out of the isolation. Remove the blanket. GEt out of the closet! Somehow, get it into the open (and no; don't broadcast it on CNN), for a heavy load will be removed from your shoulders. Our leaders can help with that....somehow. Thanks (and sorry for the ramble) b'hatzlachah The idea of having a rabbi asking personal question, only works if the congregant is close to him personally, as was in prior generations, not anymore Many rabbis are great in one area only, each to his own. Some specialize in Halacha, some in hashkafa, some in rhetoric... What I do believe should be encouraged by RRR's is general awakening to the guardyoureyes website at least 2x/yr for awareness how to protect yourself and your children from devices, Internet etc... If the rabbi sounds intelligent, members may of their own accord feel comfortable to approach him, after his broaching the topic in general terms. Posters of gye should be placed bi-annually, and many curious eyes will decide to check it out - why not I wish I would have found gye many years ago... This mornings Chizuk email seems to be a classic case in point  |

Cord' sorry this is getting a little off topic stillgoing wrote: I don't think that i'm more important then Rabbi's, but i feel that by and large they are all too busy with important things to be nuged by me. I've tried, i really have. I've learnt in shuls no where near my house just so the rav would get to know me, but i feel that for every understanding rav, there are a thousand people like me that need him. I don't like to push myself at the expense of others, so i just loose out. If your marriage and life depends on it, you'd do it...Jan 11 2016 Yes there are times that i can look a fool for asking, so what, I have my daas Torah, and I'll do what it takes to do what's right in my life Same thing as this amazing website I look like a fool to some guys they may be right and for my recovery it requires other guys to help me on my long haul You gonna stay away from the forums cos youre worried not to take too much of cordnoy or anyone else's time? It's not that I'm afraid to look like a fool. I can't hide that   I don't want to bother them. I don't want to be a hindrance, a nudge, a.. you know what I mean Warning: Spoiler! |

There was something inappropriate on the girl's screen and she was just using her shoes to cover it אי נמי she was smashing the screen... As I said before - you do what you gotta do... But better not to be a nudge... Don't call your Rav at 2am  I've gotta mull it over. You may have convinced me. Don't start partying yet - I said MAY. |
