silentbattle Current streak: 1628 days OFFLINE Platinum Boarder Posts: 3734 Karma: 15	There are no coincidences in life...seriously. So I am completely sincere when I say that whenever that starbucks was built, part of god's calculation in having it built there was so that you, Rage, would feel rewarded for sticking to your guns, and saying to the yetzer hora, "I won't do what you tell me!" Incredible.

Hey Rage, I just popped on your thread first time in a while, and I see you're traveling; and thank G-d that this time you're not in Rochester Falls! :D

I checked out the hebrew forum and guess what's there? A thread for the wall of honor...rav shraga moderating the 90 days...that's rich...well I registered for an account because I wasn't sure if I can use my American passport there

Yeh, Reb Shlachter helped me set that up (I can't write Hebrew - he helped me translate it). He totally agrees that the 90 days is a very powerful tool, after all, if you check his own website at www.hugme.co.il, at the top you'll see on the Home-Page: "Heichal Ha'tehilah", which is the same idea as the "Wall of Honor" that we are doing... After all, the best thing to get an addict started, he claims, is to get him to transpose his "control" from the addiction into "recovery". The 90 day journey gives the addict a feeling of control - in a GOOD way. But ultimately, as the active addiction fades into the background over the 90 day "break", the addict can learn to connect with life more and more... and stop resorting to a fantasy world of escape...

Rage you are ROCKIN the house!! Keep strong, we are thinking of you...

i always believed starbucks was the devils work...

well thanks to all of you im about to depart to nyc shalem...whatever doesnt kill you only makes you stronger...i feel stronger...still careful not to forget im an addict with only 8 days clean..cant let myself get haughty or cocky...need to keep those eyes clear...

im glad, guard, that you cleared up all the confusion about the 90 days...im a believer...

Thinking of you, dear friend!

Just as an alcoholic needs to avoid that first sip, a lust addict needs to avoid that first slip.Slip today? No way! ;)Fall today? No way, Jose'!
