Glad you are OK.  Just keep on going.  Hard patches sometimes turn out to be wonderful things.  At the end of the hard patch you all of a sudden feel like you have accomplished something worth while.

See my earlier comments on hard patches. You know everything already, don't need me to say it!

Glad to hear that you're doing OK...

Hey all y'all.

I guess thats how you start talking after meeting Duvid Chaim.

Im taking a break. Not only from GYE. Im taking a break from the computer.

Story; A real good friend of mine once told me this story about himself. Hes a real honest fellow ya know. So he tells me, you know IT im a smoker. I says yeah i know. Ok so he says i always be tellin meslef that when i feel im losing control and i feel im addicted im gonna stop this smokin. Well, he says, so comes here this one day and im smokin a cigareete and i realize im losing control. I feel like im addicted. Well my friends he hasnt smoked since. This here guy was real honest with himself.

Ok lets get to the point. Im starting to feel that maybe just maybe im addicted to the computer/internet. Although ive got a pretty good filter and im checking out only healthy sites, i feel that im on the computer a little too much. Getting my drift?? So ive decided that i want to take a break. Again this is a total break from this here black box. I need to feel that i can remove myself from the desk if i want to.

So im gonna be going. Not for long though. Im thinkin a week. So aint nobody gonna get worried, right??

Hatzlacha to all my friends. It wont be long before im back. And trust me youll know when im back!!  :D

I have often contemplated weather I have an internet addiction i general and here is what I have concluded: Although I may have an addiction to the internet, right now its the only way for me to recover from my lust addiction. If I close off internet from my life, it almost be like locking myself in a room so I dont lust. When I get out of the room I will lust that first second. Once I feel like I have the addiction under some control and my recovery is not dependent on the internet, then I will deal with that.

Good luck IT25 I am definitely going to miss you,
