KUTGW!!!  Thanks for responding to my posts.  I am grateful for the fact you thank your wife.  It reminds me how powerful our wives can be.  
Every day sober allows me to realize how truly blessed i am that Hashem has given me my wife.



Nothing makes me happier than reading posts like this.
Treat her like a queen and she will be your slave forever.


Hey 7up; that was deep!
Hashem is addicted to you! Feel His hugs!"Sheva yipol tzaddik VKUM"

I hope that there are very few of us here that are clinically depressed which means that we are all going out and functioning (hopefully real well) in society, but we have the "other, secret" side of us that creeps into our consciousness and mars it, and also takes up our time at night or other times. but I think that many of us are "Living" a lot on the outside. Ironically it is precisely for that reason that the pain of our secret life is so great, because you're like, I really don't need this, I could have a great life without it!

And we will!


This is pure gold!

Somehow, Habib, you don't seem like the fretting type. Unless you play guitar.

I think that for some of us, we do need to make changes in the way we live - some of us need major changes, others more minor, to make sure that we're really focusing on living life. And if we're involved in things that are stopping us from living, in some way, then I guess we'd need to address that, as well!

i think you two are right.
happens to be i used to be pretty depressed. and combined with the addiction, well, i wasn't functioning.
so for me, had to make a lot of major changes.
but people like IT, trying, you guys....
you're all already living. so it was just an issue of focusing on and enjoying all the things you were all already doing.
and since IT doesn't usually talk about his day to day life, i didn't see it, i guess.

thanks for clarifying

Hey, the truth is that it was only me and silent talking... for all we know IT doesn't really live much, which is why he's quiet about his day to day life

Just kidding of course... the way IT gives out so much chizzuk, he's clearly a giving person, and I'm sure he is very much "Living" on the outside, as I imagine you are Habib, more and more, one day at a time...


Eeech gishlept mein truk a sach, unn eich vill gishlept mein trukke nuch a sach!!!

I don't do the yiddish too well, but I think this means

I like Ken Burgess - I don't love all his stuff, but enough of it that I bought the first two of his albums.

Ha - you just reminded me of a girl I dated...she kept saying things like, "y'know, I really want to mention something that you've...never mind, I can't say that."
