Ten minutes to midnight........pumpkin time.
I try to be helpful....
I try to be informative...
I don't feel I am an intellectual...I try not to dig too deep into the WTS BS.
I always have an opinion, not always right, but it's mine.
I appreciate JWD and other ex-JW websites and all the help others have given me.

I do my best at trying to be a good person to everyone. I care and appreciate people and friends who have endured much. My heart aches for the misfortunes of others be it health or economically not well off.
I want people on the forum to know that I love them. I love hearing from others and getting and giving Christmas Cards.
I feel the happinesses in others joys, I love to laugh and cry and I care for the ill the infirm and the elderly who have been abused or left alone. I sharing my tid bits of life and I like being a peace maker. I have something for everyone.
I am a funny person and love having a great time at gatherings and parties. Apostofest is the best...
I am gregarious, I have alot of chuzpah, and am the dam fluffiest person puddy tat on the forum.
Now with that all said and done, I am going to put my purrrrrfect furrryyyyyyyyy butt to bed.
love to all

How we perceive ourselves as forum members is probably quite different as to how other posters see us. Maybe start a new topic Greendawn?
I try not to overanalyze myself anymore. I'm fairly determined not to make a box for myself with walls built of self-expectation anymore. I probably don't live up to anyone's expectations, I certainly have never lived up to my own. But I've survived (so far) and intend to keep doing that for as long as it takes to die, that is my goal. I try to keep my goals achievable.
Along the way, I want to do more good than harm. But we all hurt, we all delight...to live is to know pain, and comfort, and turmoil, and peace, and despair, and hope. I would say as a forum member I match the only expectation I have for myself that I will unfailingly live up to. I'm a human forum member.

Mostly a watcher.
I would like to be more of a helper, but I am a bit limited as to the time I can spend here cos I have a very paranoid JW wife.
She knows I am here and is very suspicious of my activities and has dreamed that she has had demon attacks when she has had gone to bed and left me playing with the puter.
I am an ex-member of more than just the JW cult. Some of the cults I am an ex-member of are scientific cults that have a wide following and are subsciribed to by many of the posters here and I have to learn to restrain myself from responding to posts on those subjects. I am a slow learner

Besides that though, it depends how I'm feeling (sometimes influences what types of thread I read) and whether I feel the need to reply. I definitely interact more than I used to.
emo - just happy to be here
silentWatcher:
actually, I should open up more, but I have nothing interesting to say :-(
try us!!
I guess I'm a quiet listener. I'm addicted to the forum, although I'm fairly invisible. I just sit back and absorb it all. And....I am very appreciative to all you talkative ones out there....who have helped me see that I was not alone in my fading or in my experiences in life. Thank you all!
*shrug* What sort of forum member do you think I am? I go where the mood takes me.
I use my humor, and wit in most posts that I take part in.....
Only because people don't take me seriously, or maybe the fact I was raised(mother influence) to feel that I have nothing intelligent to say. Which I do, but I keep it to myself. Although, when there is a heat debate among my friends, they are very shocked with the knowledge I do have."Wow Brookie really isn't that stupid"!
I always hear..."Brooke honey, just sit there and look pretty". So I am just used to people thinking I am just a dumb bimbo. It's fine, I just sit there and smile, laugh inside at their obtuse, and doltish conversation.
