Redemptionisrequired

How have you been my friend?

Somewhere between great & not great! Things are well enough--pretty good, actually, overall. And you?

I'm at a decent state overall, hoping a good shift is on the way. I'm happy to hear you're doing pretty good!

Is this work related or more so urges? My friend, be patient with yourself. You're human, we're all bound to want trinkets and such.

There are a lot of related stressors, but the main one is just old temptations to PMO/fetish &c. Someday the ring-bearer will sail into the West...

Yes, someday..I wonder how long it takes to undo fetishes. It can be frustrating, I understand.

YES!

Well done, sir!

@AModernMiroku and @KingPiece thank you both!

Dern, I have so many questions and so few answers.

The man who does not speak wastes the minute.

@Mr. Monk I disagree with this, it's quite the opposite.

Thank you for the support brother! Time to move forward again.

@M_H Thank you man! @AModernMiroku I'm alright, it's a bit of a hurt with temptation atm, but thankfully i'm not spiralling into a binge or anything. I let the stress of work and temptation of flirting with this girl get the best of me. I will stand again

@Redemptionisrequired : Very good. I am just on my way to prayers. I shall make myself of service to you.

@AModernMiroku Thank you brother, apologies for letting you down on this one. I really thought I had it this round. It's rather frustrating. I am grateful for your support

Good job champ. Onwards and upwards from here!

OHHHHH WE'RE HALF WAY THEERRE

Momentum is with me @M_H , thank you for the encouragement! @AModernMiroku YES!! I must catch up to my dear brother and friend!

Awesome :D

Thank you brother !

Always happy to see you stop by, my friend! I'm having a minor stressful bout with a new opportunity at work. Trying my best to keep paving forward and grow from this, it can be tricky. PMO is not an option though. How are things with you?

Good to hear. Things were rough for a time, but I have had a good thing going on these days. Looking ahead: I am anticipating renewing a lot of disciplines & focus for the upcoming Advent season--& this will be both tough & enriching.

my man, way to go!

Thanks man! Congrats to you as well on your achievement!

Well done! Now for a victory lap?...

A glorious workout to celebrate!

Ahah! Yes, the forums classical reboot in just 3 more days. Thank you, my friend! Keep paving the path for us!

Always a pleasure to see these sorts of things.

God bless you!

And you, my monk friend!

@AModernMiroku I have made it through the obstacle ! How are you doing?

@Redemptionisrequired I was actually fairly well-off until yesterday. I have simply been very tempted to all sorts of not-so-good things. My body is more-or-less in its seemingly regular routine of becoming extremely aroused in a reboot cycle. The feelings preceded the thoughts, if I might say so. But this happens naturally over time...so, in short, I am alright.

@AModernMiroku You've weather stronger temptation, my monk friend, you can and will pull through these as well. Keep to your path, you inspire us all!

ONWARD

and forward!!

And you have friends already waiting to help you along the way.

Welcome back.

Thank you friend! I'm glad to be back, the auto-pilot mode has ended.
