Day 28

My kids were listening to Shmuel Kunda's "The Royal Rescue" this morning, (I know it's not sfira now, but my kids like it ) and one song really struck me.
It's track 5 called "When Everything's Impossible"

I'll try to write the lyrics as I hear them:

When everything's impossible and you don't know why
So big and so collasible you shake your head and sigh

There is something that Hashem expects for you to do
Pick yourself up get up there and try

When life is overbearing and you don't know where to turn
You think your hard of hearing because you never seem to learn

Hashem will help you if try to really make it through
Do you best and never be concerned

Slap your thigh hold your head high show you've got the spirit
Skip along and sing a song let everybody hear it

Give a jump & give a laugh your problems will just break in half
Hashem wants you to try!

Don't think of your troubles and they'll never ever find you
Run ahead of everyone and never look behind you

You'll only win and never fail
Just let the wind blow through your sail
And see your spirit fly!

(For the benefit of anyone who doesn't own the CD, if someone could post a link to some site like Mostly Music I would appreciate it.)

I used to beat myself up terribly because I would have wet dreams when I was younger, which would lead to real falls.

Over time, and as a result of reading more posts from gye, I realized that it is best to just ignore them, and write it off for now as just a biological anamolly. Over time, the more you grow, the less often it will occur.

The best is when you have a dream where you walk away from a trigger and wake up clean!

Hatzlacha Rabbah!

Hey Avi!
Totaly agree man,
I know some people like to knock Miva & Tikun Klali saying that it's just part of the cycle, but if I may,
even if you think it's damaging in context of "Falls"
I think it's a great practice for wet dreams
Cheers!
