    tjlibre,

    That song by eminem is the one I would have posted. I have it on my ipod and play it whenever I start feeling depressed. It helps me feel better too.

    I like to listen to the unedited version when I get aggravated or upset by something related to the WT. These are my favorite parts of the song:

    “But don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful OoOo
    They can all get f*&%*. Just stay true to you sOoOoo
    Don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful OoOo
    They can all get f*&%*. Just stay true to you

    …….

    But I just can't admit
    Or come to grips, with the fact that
    I may be done with rap (the JW religion)
    I need a new outlet
    I know some s*$@ so hard to swallow
    And I just can't sit back and wallow
    In my own sorrow
    But I know one fact
    I'll be one tough act to follow
    One tough act to follow
    One tough act to follow
    Here today, gone tomorrow
    But you have to walk a thousand miles”

    I also likeDaughtry’s “No Surprise”.

    My family has related well to the old movie, "Strictly Ballroom"

    A main character tries to break free from the old rules with creative new dance steps.

    He his condemned for being different, by the established organization and family. When all he wants is to be happy.

    The movie is funny with a different 'off beat' Ausie humor. But it makes its points very well.

    The music and choreography are great, as well as the acting. It will touch your heart, if you care to watch.

    The first 60 seconds of Love Actually - the JWs hate the world around them and paint a horrible picture of people who are non JWs.

    The reality is - well - watch the video....

    Love Actually is all around.....
