But realize that it's your decision - and the second you want to get up, you can. I think it's a shame that you want to lie there, although I can understand it. As soon as you decide that you want to lift yourself out, you'll be back on the road. There might be bumps, you might trip, but you'll be on the road - not under it.

I wish I could say that I'm restarting my climb, but unfortunately, I'm not. I'm gonna lay in the muck for a while But at least I have Shabbos coming, I can't Wait!!! Dear Habah, I don't think you really meant that (second thing), did you? It was just a sigh.

I'm gonna lay in the muck for a while

WOW!

that is incredible!!!

good for you!

I am soooooo glad to hear that you fell into the muck!!!

the acorn does not grow unti lit begins to decay..
and then it needs lots of vitamin enriched MUCK to nurish and sustain it!

but as it lays in the muck - as neither an acorn, not a tree at this point
(because the world was built on the idea of something from nothing)

the only decision whille in the MUCK is whether to be a OAK tree or not!

OUTSTANDING!

Choices!!!

HURRAY!!!

I am soooo glad to hear that you did not fall into the dry, parshed, burning desert sands!!!!

You are INCREDIBLY LUCKY TO HAVE FALLEN INTO THE MUCK!!!

Surely it must have been your lucky day !

Haba, My Most Beloved Chaver,

I wrote this with YOU in mind:

Once I had a Yetzer Hara
For Tznus that I let pass,
I hit him hard and knocked him down,
And kicked him in the...

Knee.

HABA, don't look at others right now. look at yourself!

YOU HAVE THE STRENGTH, YOU ARE A YID, YOU CAN DO IT!!

BE BRAVE HABA. GET UP RIGHT NOW AND KICK THE YH RIGHT IN THE ... KNEE.

IT HURTS!! THE KNEE IS WHAT HOLDS HIM UP!! HE DOESN'T HAVE A LEG TO STAND ON IF YOU DESTROY HIS KNEE!

DON'T BOW TO HIM AND YOU DESTROY HIS KNEE!!

BOW ONLY TO HASHEM, BEND YOUR KNEES IN PRAYER TO HASHEM FOR STRENGTH, THEN GET UP!!.

IT ONLY TAKES A PURE PINHOLE TO REACH HASHEM,

THEN HE WILL OPEN A LARGE ARCHWAY FOR YOU!!

KAVEI EL HASHEM!! CHAZAK V'AMETZ LEBECHA, V'KAVEI EL HASHEM!!

NOW!!

HABA L'TAHER, SHOMAYIM WILL TURN UPSIDE DOWN TO ASSIST YOU, BUT IT MUST START WITH YOUR EFFORT!!

PLEASE, I BEG OF YOU, BEGIN ANEW!!

NOW!!!

No one is so small that he can not give help, and no one is so big that he doesn't need it.

Kol HaOlam Kulo, Gesher Tzar Meod, V'HaIkkar: Lo L'Pacheid Klal.

Dear Chaverim,

That's it!!!! Enough time in the muck! It's Chodesh Ha'Aviv, and I need to renew myself, get some new leaves and buds out on the branches, I need to get out of my maitzarim, my confined borders. So B"H I'm getting back up now and starting a new 90 day chart, but working on Today for right now!

Thanks to all of you for giving me chizzuk when I was down, I want you to all know that I did check my thread sometimes even when I didn't have the heart to post, and seeing your comments gave me enormous chizzuk!!!

Can I have a few partners to journey through the 90 with? Last time I was with Steve and OL, this time maybe Rav Bardy? (I know you're about 10 days ahead of me, but no biggie, I'll play catch up!)

Anyone else?

Let's have each others back, let's play defense for each other, let's march side by side bazookas ablaze clearing a path through all the junk to get to 90 together!!!

With Ha-shem in the AWAC above, guiding us into battle, we can do it!

Ah, it feels good just to be back on the road again!!!

I think I need to drop him off of the Sears Tower and tell him its no big deal if he falls!! Thank G-d for every clean day, and thank you all for helping me get here!!!

Haba, you are the bomb!!!!

you can see my thread to get a chizuk!

indeed, at the begining the y"h works overtime, this is our turn to do the histadlus.
to me the 90 days have finished at the 30, the begining is the most difficult streak of the journey.

i'm SURE you gonna do that!!

sure sure sure !!!

don't let the menuval drop you. we trust you. love you.

steve and me still wait to you to do a lechayim as you have a big share of our recovery.

please, don't let us wait for a long time...my throat is dry. :D :D
