      Default 58 Days

      I'm not sure why I couldn't wait a couple more days to have a nice round number, and it's not like I'm even out the front door compared to the distances some of you have travelled, but whatever. 58 days feels better than none did, and better than a week and a month and anywhere else along the line so far. On to the next.

      Great stuff Hilroy!

      58 days is indeed a great achievement! The early days are the hardest so you should be really proud of this.

      Keep your guard up though and watch for the signs of overconfidence - it's still easy to slip up.

      Best wishes,

      Ben
      The world is in a constant conspiracy against the brave. It's the age-old struggle: the roar of the crowd on the one side, and the voice of your conscience on the other. - Douglas MacArthur

      "'Thou mayest rule over sin,' Lee. That's it. I do not believe all men are destroyed. I can name you a dozen who were not, and they are the ones the world lives by. It is true of battles - only the winners are remembered. Surely most men are destroyed, but there are others who like pillars of fire guide frightened men through the darkness. 'Thou mayest!' What glory! It is true that we are weak and sick and quarrelsome, but if that is all we ever were we would, millenniums ago, have disappeared from the face of the earth. A few remnants of fossilised jawbone, some broken teeth in a strata of limestone, would be the only mark man would have left of his existance in the world. But the choice, Lee, the choice of winning!" - East of Eden by John Steinbeck

      58?! That's Great! Congratulations! Keep on staying clean! The challenge seems to shift about now from avoiding temptation to avoiding complacency. I had 8 months once about 2 years ago, and I blew it because I didn't keep coming back here and staying involved. Don't make my mistake! Congratulations!

      When I'm humble and grateful,

      I realize that there is a big hole in my soul.

      I used to try to fill it with porn,

      but now

      I fill it with loving kindness,
