Masayin, I know exactly what you mean by a compy chizik or scary mussar, those are the two feeling's that we are always looking to FEEL! And we go from one to another!!
we have to learn to start doing The right things with out those sweet feeling, when the sweetest feeling is like a dried prune, hashem I don't feel scared of you, I gave up on being a holy Jew, but.... I will still seek you out because YOU I believe that you are good for me, I am giving myself over to you even though I really don't want to and don't feel mushy about it either
Thanks for your response but I respectfully totally disagree.
We do not stop our
addictions/habits unless there is something pushing us hard to do so, even though we know that it is wrong, isn't that what rock bottom is all about? isn't "I will still seek you out because YOU I believe that you are good for me" a motivation statement?
Yes that's exactly what I mean we have to motivate ourselves just because I believe that you are good for me even though I don't FEEL it, that thought process can be bitter but over time it can become sweet, hope I am writing clear,
