I live with grant's stories. It plays in my mind and keeps me focused. 
The amount of tears and worry over this story has brought me to a higher place.
PLease keep it coming

I almost missed my daily post. BH doing OK.
Not sure if I'll get a chance to post tomorrow, my next post IYH will be Motzei Shabbos.

Have been implementing an idea I heard from R' Fischel Schechter shlit"a to choose 3 things every morning to be thankful of, right after Modeh Ani.

May we all be zoche to the hashpoas of Purim. Each one of us what Hashem knows we need

Ok Rabboisai, here’s where things stand.
She responded.
I told her I’m taking at least a month to disconnect from texting/technology to connect to myself and to God (she’s spiritual so was into it).
So told her won’t be talking.
She was cool with it.

So now, she won’t be texting me. I deleted her number so can’t text her “when I’m ready.”
Now, there is still a risk of texting me at some point down the line, that’s true.
But as long as I don’t respond, she’ll stop and assume I’m not on WhatsApp.
She said “I hope we talk soon.”
And that nearly killed me...

Anyway, this is the matzav.
Im not proud of myself.
I really took a step back here, and nearly lost it all.

The truth is that even with all the gedarim, if a person wants, they can get shmutz.
A person, especially in the Dor, is always just a few steps away from potential destruction.

There’s a way for me to get back her number, by going on the site we met on (before GYE) and getting the number. And unfortunately my account can’t be deleted on it.
The main thing here for me is to be שקוע in Torah v’Yiras Shamayim.

Im moving on and hoping to utilize Purim to catapult me to a new Kabolas HaTorah. B’ezras HaShem Yisborach.

maybe finish each chapter in a way that portrays everything thats wrong with moes messed up brain and actions, and how it impact his wifes feelings. I think it would remove every trigger especially with grants writing skills.

And he would not keep us in suspense that much

I would really like to eat now.
There’s good food all over.
It smells great.
But I won’t eat cause I’m a Jew that fasts on the days we are supposed to.

I hope to one day adapt that view in regards to acting out sexually.

Forget the stupid ego!
1 day clean!!!!!!!!!! 
I couldn't bring myself to post again about "petty" accomplishments. Then I realized it was the Yetzer Hora talking.

BHYY is back in the ring!

I'm home now. As I've stated in the past, I will not touch an unfiltered device. I will try to post here at least daily (tomorrow's post may be a trifle difficult to understand...) and I will keep davening. I will Daven that Hashem help me stay clean and overcome all nisyonos and bez"h take me to 90 days and beyond, to a fulfilling, clean life.
