Sometimes we prepare ourselves for a difficult nisayon and we withstand the test only to fall right after the test. Someone passed this piece of advice on to me and I wanted to share it.
She was prepared for staying away from junk food on Purim. She knew that eating the wrong thing would send her on a spiral of indulgence that she did not want to go on. But she was not prepared for Shusham Purim. Somehow she lost her guard, and she lost her abstinence.
The Yetzer Hara is there at all times. We can never relax our guard.
