Pesach is my 3-yr GYE anniversary!
yishtabach shmo!
it is so good to not have a mountain of shame in my shadow
it is so good to have gevaldige gye-friends
it is so good to become a better husband, father, person and Jew
Thank you Guard!
thank you all my buddies!
and Thank YOU RBSO!
מודה על העבר וצועק על העתיד
אנא שאני בחיקך
היום ובכל יום
תן לנו ישע ופדיום
אבא מתוק אבא חזק
אתה ממש געשמאק

Happy Birthday! Are you giving out Peklach?

wow!

I started reading now the first post (from 3 years ago?) & was amazed! how did you talk about me! hiding the secret & for sure the only one! & finding GYE in google! you spoke about me.

sorry i'm not able to read the entire post now (over 100 pages!) but the first one did give me a chizuk! here is another person who were in my shoes 3 yrs ago & today he is in a "good place"

thank you
I need to remember that:
I'm no a bad person; I'm sick.
I'm not A Choteh. I'm A Chole.
It take time & effort to stay sober but it worth it.

Davening to hashem to keep me sober 1 day @ a time since יום ג שבוע של יום-הכיפורים ו תשרי ה'תשע"ד

(and to keep this date)

Hey Zem,
couldn't sign on for a long time. Mazel Tov! It's a miracle, yes? Yes. Yes? Yes!
I am blessed to have been able to read your thread. Mostly for the stupid stuff that goes on. and then you'll post this a-bomb that just harpoons me in the kishkus, and makes me re-think things, or weep, or go off and have a talk with HBH. Thanks for being there.
Much love,
Joel

Hi Joel,
thanks for stopping by, it's a pleasure to hear from you. how are things going?
did you extract the harpoon from your kishkes? did you give it back to Queequeg?

i recently started on my journey through this thread, it's gonna take a long time to read through all this chizzuk, shtussim and torah but i think i's going to be worth it.

i love reading about zemmy's son who's probably older than me by now. im also getting a real education about important things like cholinade.
FIVE STARS

i'm only about a fifth of the way there but i don't think anyone got the prize yet, sooo 2 and a half years later i'm going to give zemmy some closure

a little simcha??????????????????????????????????????? we need a giant dose of simcha. our entire life has to be beimcha

so lets put a big (not little) smile on our face no matter how difficult things are for us!

HS, i'll drink to that one! huge giant doses of simcha for everyone!

trivia: whoever can show the original source of "Mitzvah Gedola Lihiyos Besimcha Tamid" gets bragging rights and 10 free smileys....



the first time i heard of it was from the miami boys choir on stand up album

www.mostlymusic.com/stand-up.html

and according to wikipedia the one who said it was "A popular teaching by Rabbi Nachman of Breslov, a 19th century Chassidic Rabbi, is "Mitzvah Gedolah Le'hiyot Besimcha Tamid,"

and then i found the source (through another search)

Likutey Moharan II, Lessons #23 and 24 are lessons in which Rebbe Nachman focuses squarely on the avodah of simcha. (Lesson #24 is actually the source of “Mitzvah gedolah l’hiyot b’simcha tamid.”)
