Ive been addicted to pornography ever since I was 15 years old. Everytime that I stumble and fall into the temptation of masturbating and ejaculating, I feel that not only do I loose confidence and detachment from relationship with significant others but also a curtain drawn betwee me and God. I am a struggling Catholic man 20 years old and numerous times have i tried to overcome my sin. Now I believe that using this site as a platform to voice my struggles to you and hopefuly inspire and be inspired. I WANT to be free. I WANT to be free from shackles of lust and the downslides of depression after sinning. I WANT to give more to those that I care about i WANT to love purely to the woman God calls me to. I WANT to seek my ambitions and goals and the beauty of life and the present moment without being drawn back to the seclusion and isolation of pornography. I WANT to honour God by being a man of faith and crucifying my sins onto the cross. Dying to sinful nature to achieve greater. I WANT to be free. For those that are reading this and feel as if they are journeying and struggling, know that there is no victory without the struggle, no cross without the passion. Today I approach the challenge to be Pornography Free, Masturbation Free, Edge Free and lay it before my God who knows my efforts and will to grow from a boy in a room alone not experiencing the fullness of life to a man who serves honours and loves life and those in it to the very last drop. If you are reading this, know you are not alone. Know you are worth more. Know you are priceless and you deserve more than where you were. Strive and struggle knowing that closing the laptop to go for a jog, putting your phone away to do something you love, or recognizing a lustful thought then letting it pass not linger, is a step with no regrets. No video, thought, or picture is more satisfying than the feeling of walking away and conquering the flaw that makes you the weakest. Stay strong Bro. Heres to our first day or to your 90th.
