Thank you, R. Guard and Battleworn.  Boruch Hashem, I'm up to 41 days.

I enjoyed my son's recent Chumash play, and I'm grateful that I was able to Shep Nachas from the event, which would have been a non-starter had I been acting out recently.

This is what's called "LIVING" your life, instead of just watching it go by.

Kedusha, May you continue to reap nachas D'Kdusha from all your holy children
NB

Kedusha

I really relate to you regarding your son's chumish play.  One of this biggest blessings of recovery for me is enjoying the simple pleasures of watching my children and taking an interest in them.  I was once at an SA conference and an older lady got up and burst into tears and said, I plead to everyone here who has young families to get sober and do what it takes to stay sober, and even though she is so grateful that her husband is now in recovery, they cannot undo the damage and the lost time from their children.  I know for myself that one of my crazy justifications is that I am only hurting myself, but in truth I am hurting my wife and children.  But when I am sober and I pick up my little son from nursery and ask him what he did that interaction is priceless.

you touch such aon such a fine chord .I too was able to look the HEILEGE TZON KODOSHIM in the face by my last yingeles chumash seuda .I still  feel the guilt of the previous one.

KEDUsha 41 days is a h**k of alot of days dont turn around and...

The kedusha you woitnessed at the seida was the TORAH comung directly from Har Sinai to your sons heilige neshama

But.. but.. every single day a BAS KOL emanates from HAr sinai and calls back all of the people who wandered off thr path of Torah

what is the point of the Bas KOl if we don't hear it ? Says the Heilger Maor Einayim that every single TID even the greatest RASHA has MANY HIRHUREI TESHUVAH every sinle day!!! THAT IS THE BAS KOL!!!!

so you too can tap into the kedusha and the energy  that your son was ZOCHE to and you can grow and grow and you WILL see nachas from him

You never cease to amaze me - our battle has many similaritiesto Purim (I think that's where you took the posuk from) how we all partook from the forbidden seudoh and indulged ourselves and the evil YH now wants to kill us, and only through Teffiloh will we prevail.

Very nice vort about the mochor yidden - procrastination one of my terrible traits.

You were right about GG (although I was brought up in SH), what's your secret, should I be worried about what I post here
