oops, dont nkow how that happened but i meant to say this


i can proudly say that last night HASHEM led me through a very difficult nissayon.
i had to drop someone off downtown at the megbus station  and it was my first time going to downtown so i accidently  ended up on the wrong highway after the highway forked into 2 different highways and i called my dad and he told me to get off and turn around and go east instead of west and when i got off i found myself next to a bad place where i could have just pulled over and just looked which i was tempted to do
but hashem gave me a push and i just did a quick turn around and got right back on the highway.

but even greater then that, hashem saved me from my own imagination when i got home and i am still clean on day 7

Been there many times. It's a good feeling to come face to face with the reality that you have a private G-d who is focused 100% on you and helping you out. Only Hashem can do that: focus 100% only on each of all the pwople in the world. He does that.

day 8,
still trucking along in hashems truck

still trucking along

day 11
trying to deal with RID/ 5th step issues

there is someone (cant get away from him) that always just gets me mad, live with him and i try to use the 5th step but today is hard maybe its cus im tired

You're doing great!
You make yourself mad.
Others just help you do it.

hi HS,

being tired can make any situation that much harder. and there is a mashal in the sefer Toras Avos for a bochur or yungerman who is very tired. it's like a house in the forest with no inhabitants, no window panes, no doors. anyone who wants can enter freely....

ברכת הבית
בזה השער
לא יבוא צער
בזאת הדירה
לא תבוא צרה
בזאת הדלת
לא תבוא בהלת
בזאת המחלקה
לא תבוא מחלוקת
בזה המקום
תהי ברכה ושלום

thank you so much, but that one is way too short for me.
i want to write it on klaf in safrus and give it as a gift and that one would only take up one line.

When is good for you?

HS, i sent you a PM with other versions

(and Shteeble i sent you a PM too )

You can also put each phrase on separate lines.  The names of Haman take up a whole column... I wouldn't give them as a gift though .
