I want to thank all of you for reaching out to me with love at my time of pain. I cannot describe how empowered I am feeling by your responses to my post. Special thanks to Dov, Guard, Yiddle2, SilentBattle, Moshew, Tomin2B, Eye.nonymous and about 90 others of you who took the time to read it. I feel connected to you all.  The way that this community has responded to me  inspired me to look into the Twelve and Twelve (something I have not done for a while). As I opened the book, "it" turned to page 27. There staring me in the face were the following words: "Many a man like you has begun to solve the problem (of Faith) by the method of substitution. You  can, if you wish, make A.A. (substitute GYE) itself your "Higher Power". Here's a very large group of people who have solved their Alcohol (substitute lust) problem. In this respect, they (the GYE Community) are certainly a 'Power greater than you', who have not even come close to a solution. Surely you can have faith in them. Even this minimum of faith will be enough. You will find many members who have crossed the threshold just this way. All of them will tell you that, once across, their faith broadened and deepened. Then relieved of the (lust) obsession...they began to (truly) Believe in a Higher Power and speak of G-D.  AIN OYD MILVADO! I love you all.

What a beautiful post Yosef!

GYE really has a special 'higher power';
one strong enough to hold us all!
Keep posting and good luck!

Yosef that was amazing! Keep up the good work and keep posting!

Just Remember, Reb Yosef - if we're all part of a higher power, then so are you... 

The kind of deep and inspirational posts that some of the latest newcomers are bringing to the forum are beyond impressive! Look at this guys!

There! You've tapped into the very essence of what we're all about!

Keep on posting, Yosef! You're an inspiration to all of us! A miracle in the making!
