Sturggle!!
my big bro!
listen up, and listen good-
You are amazing!
now repeat that to yourself (except substitute I for you)
and you may say "no i'm not"
but let me ask you a question.
who knows better- you or mom and R' Guard?
and you may say you know yourself better than them, so you're still right
WRONG!!
even if you were the biggest big-shot historian in the world, and you knew all about everything that ever happened in history, and you wrote 999 books on just the topic of the civil war, if you said that krias yam suf never happened, even if you prove it from every source, you'd still be WRONG!!
so R' Guard and mom know best.
but Hashem knows even better
and He created this guy named sturggle, and He decided what sturggle needs to do in his life
and He gave sturggle kochos and challenges
so now sturggle.
repeat after me. again.
"you're amazing!"
cuz Hashem gave you challenges. and you just keep trying.
and trying
and trying
and guess what?
42 DAYS!!!!
now that counts for a whole lot. ;D
so ask R' Guard if it was a fall or a slip. and if it was a fall, see the line above this. and if it was a slip, see the line above this and add in just keep chuggin'
cuz you're RATM's inspiration
(and you're mine too!!)
of all of us "kids" you're the farthest along. (and i'll admit that i want to catch up to you)


i also wanted to tell you something you wrote that makes me laugh all the time
one day you were kinda upset and blew up at us to grow up. and you said that uri calling your house and asking for sturggle was so not "real-world"
or something like that
uri called your house and asked for STURGGLE!!!
anyways, every single time i think of that i crack up
literally.
i was on the subway last night staring at my shoes and all of a sudden i thought of that and i just started laughing. people must have thought i was nuts!!!
but i couldn't help it
:D :D :D :D :D

i know, that's prob not going to help you out right now, but i had to tell you.

Sturggle,you're my man,no matter what mood you may be in.

Habib,

That post that you're talking about was written by Uri.
Maybe you're also mixing a few other things together, I'm not sure.
Either way, it never really happened.
And it's great that you laugh!
And it totally does help me!
I am laughing with you!! :D :D :D

Too tired to respond to the more serious parts...,
you totally came through with that post,
thanks!

R' Guard,

Geshmak!
We should all have a refuah shelaima!

It also happens to be
that for a certain period of time in my life,
I davened by R' Reisman
every year on Yom Kippur.
So, extra meaningful to me
and at this time of year.

cant read much of the thread on my phone. just read that youve been having a hard time and hope all is well. best of wishes! - 2b

Tomim,
It means a lot to me that you posted on my thread.
Thanks! :D :D ;D ;D

good morning folks.

i want to post about a bunch of diff things,
but i think i want to try to be somewhat productive off the forum today as well.
i have some cleaning in my room to do before chag
and id like to decorate the sukkah with my sister.

tom is a day in jeru for me
and i have a couple of things i want to accomplish there,
so today is the day to get things done at home.

im writing all this, b/c that will hold me accountable to getting these things done.
who's volunteering to check in on me?

ME!!! (Ha finally I can critisize you, and you actually give me permission  ;D On second thought, then it wudn't be so fun after all  :D)


gr8 idea Sounds like you pulled through yester. I don't know how you have so much strength.. May hashem continue to give you koach

constructive criticism is always welcome,
just at times,
i may not take it so well...
that doesn't mean it's not welcome,
just means that at times,
i lose my mind...

i better get off this computer or else you'll have my head!!!

and amen to that bracha,
but i hope instead of giving me koach,
He puts up the fight for me,
He is Hakol Yachol
and I, well, we won't go there now.

big time!  >

Beware:Sis on duty.

oy...
i cant stay away for more than 20 minutes!!!
ok, ok, going back to my room...

Run! Unless....(i told u we shud think of consequences)

sukkah decorating done!
room - well, i made a dent in it,
but it still needs some work!!

I just looked over the posts on this thread
from the past day or so.

Regarding my posts,
it's weird to feel so different
than the person who was posting then.
Actually, not so weird,
and be forewarned,
I will most likely lose my mind again!!
At some point or other...

Regarding your posts,
THANK YOU
for mamash holding me up
when I can't do it myself.
THANK YOU HKB"H
for bringin me to these people
and them to me.
