The אוה”ח comments on the פסוק in פרשת בלק

"קל מוציאם ממצרים"

The פסוק uses the word “מוציאם“ (present tense) rather than “הוציאם“ (past tense).

Explains the אוה”ח that this hints to the words of חז”ל;

"בכל דור ודור חייב אדם לראות את עצמו כאילו הוא יצא ממצרים"


יציאת מצרים was not just a once off event. Rather, each year, we can experience our own יציאת מצרים again. קל מוציאם ממצרים, Hashem didn’t just take us out, He takes us out. This year, we will once again have the opportunity to break free from the ערות הארץ and really reach a true חירות עולם.

Hey! Have you ever seen a talking yerushalmi kugel?

Welcome to the warmest family in the world!

Here you will find true care, concern, and warmth.
Here you will learn that you CAN break free!

Have you tried any of these tools?
There is the F2F Program, the Vaad Program (click here for an explanation of what the vaad is), and the book The Battle of the Generation - many have found this very helpful in reframin' the struggle, as you mentioned.
Posting is a great way to connect, learn, and grow also. 
(The Hall of Fame Thread is a great compilation of some the great threads on GYE.)

There is also an extremely powerful tool of accountability, friends, and mentors, as has been mentioned, that has helped hundreds - myself included.
HHM - Hashem Help Me - is the mentor-in-chief around here. He's reachable at michelgelner@gmail.com.
Some of the other great guys here are Eerie - 1gimpelovitz@gmail.com, Muttel - muttel15@gmail.com,   Reb Akiva - mevakesh247@gmail.com iwantlife - iwantlifegye@proton.me minhamayim - minhamayim1@gmail.com amevakesh - amevakesh23@gmail.com

Keep postin', you'll see, the oilam is here for you.

Lookin' forward to seeing great things from you!
And don't forget, as always, KOMT!!

Do you have an accountability partner for this geder? 

I know for me, it would be extremely helpful...


I don't feel like telling him something so minor, again I'm not talking about inappropriate browsing.
Id rather just post on here.

I was suggesting asking a different friend to help hold you accountable specifically for this. 
I know that it would do me good to read TBOTG every night, but I was having a hard time getting it done. I found a friend who was also tryin' to read it, and we now hold each other accountable. 
I know for myself that while posting here is powerful, this works even better.

If you like music / singing, you can check out some artists and learn the songs you enjoy (should be able to find a translation too). Are there any Shabbos observant Jews/communities close enough to your city to spend a Shabbos there?
Today is yesterday's tomorrow.
The yetzarim a person has the most trouble dealing with are his most powerful God-given tools for developing his potential and achieving shleimus.
It doesn't matter how big the number is, only that today it is going up by one.

Please feel free to reach out. I'd appreciate connecting with you (via GYE, email, or phone - whatever floats your boat)

It’s not a stira. 

In what ways is it easier in ey?

You have the mekomos hakedoshim, many chashuve yeshivas, gedolim, Toldos Aron. Yerushalyim is saturated with kolel yungeleit and yeshiva bachurim. And you could also go to zfas and bnai brak. Where else do you have a shiur like that of R Asher Arieli or R Avram Yehoshua

So how we gonna celebrate a week??

I'm expecting a massive party

I once posted a thought from the Tanya (I think he said it). Our connection with Hashem is like a rope, Sometimes it may rip, but we can retie it, and when we do the two sides become closer together.
We see that when guys fall and get back up they're much stronger, and our relationship with Hashem and everyone else can slowly but surely repair.

Do you know any Shabbos songs? Singing always gets me into the spirit of things.



I have the Koren Shalem sidur which has a lot of lyrics but I don't know the intonation.


Try carlebach or mbd

I think a moderators role should be to adjudicate whether flagged posts and users violate the forum rules. If that’s the job description you’ll find many people who are qualified. If it’s basically a mashgiach temidi role, it’ll be hard to find candidates
