Note to Blueshirts

Good Morning, Brothers:

I acted out yesterday by viewing pornography on the internet while at my office.

Triggers: I was feeling a bit overwhelmed with projects, was coming down off the adrenaline high of having given a presentation and encountered pictures of some attractive women while doing regular internet browsing. I acknowledge these triggers in hopes of being able to make better choices next time they come up.


Today:

Feelings: This morning I am feeling shame and regret, but am also feeling hopeful and grateful. Despite acting out yesterday, I still feel connected with people around me and don't feel like I have withdrawn into isolation. By confessing the slip now, my hope is to avoid repeating it today. Please pray for me.

Issues: I am very busy at work. There are more projects on my plate than I can handle. But I had a conversation with my boss yesterday and got some feedback on how to prioritize the work.

Needs: I need to start exercising again. I need to eat better and take better care of my temple of Christ.


Take care, Brothers! We're all in this together!
