Estee...nice to see you on the board again.
It is nice to be back. I’m on holidays right now, so I have lots of time on my hands. We decided to stick around home this summer. We have a lot of gardening, not to mention dance lessons on the go. We are learning Argentine Tango now. That has got to be the sexiest dance alive!

Wow, ESTEE... Thanks for the compliment!!! (If the smileys were available right now, I'd add a blush...) …Hah! There they are!! Zid
Heheheh!!! I am so grateful for this forum. I think about years ago when my mom got df’d…she lived in a small town and she had no one. But thanks to the internet, etc., the patriarcial dubs can't keep us alienated or isolated any longer. I am blessed to know an entire forum of the most beautiful souls. I can come here anytime I want to find love and support. Thanks for your comments, Ziddina… Hugs to you!

I regularly threw away stacks of magazines every few months.
Good work, I’ll bet throwing them out made you the person you are…mentallyfree! Me too. No matter how good a dub I used to be, there were times when I had to thin out the ever-growing pile.

Hmmm…I might not be the smartest cookie in the box, but I think there is a fly buzzing around here somewhere. Maybe it will find the light.

BANE, do you have a sense of humor at all? Even the National Geographic Society pokes fun at themselves for the way their magazines pile up in people's homes. Why can't we laugh at the WTS and their worthless litter-trash? Sheesh !
Like I said, I think there is a fly buzzing around the forum today. Did you see it? Maybe it flew to the light.
StoneWall, jookbeard, wannabefree, Titus, MidwichCuckoo, Mary, and ThinkAboutIt…Can you feel the love? Thanks for your comments. Those of you who have been on the forum for awhile...do you remember when someone new came on the forum---and how much they thought they knew? I keep in mind that the jw patriarchy sets their members up to function poorly with outsiders. Now we are the outsiders and we can see how a Jehovah's Witness --- how WE --- used to appear. Makes me shudder to think how I used to act on the job, or with a group of outsiders. Gawd. I am so very grateful to have found the strength and support to leave that cult. If JWs are peering in the forum, it is obvious to me that something is not right in their world. BANE needs some time, I guess. In the meantime, he needs an avenue to vent his anger and frustration. I remind myself...if all was right in dub-land, he would not be here. Something is attracting him, besides the need to count time, I mean.

Hey people, you're way too mean-minded about the Watchtower. Even as we waste time posting our personal comments on the internet, the clean waters of the Watchtower are being poured over literally millions and millions of appreciative, thirsty souls worldwide. In my street alone so many householders line up at their front doors eagerly awaiting the latest issue of the Watchtower delivered by the sweetly smiling JWs. Let's open our hearts and generously praise both the magazine and the JWs for the stunningly good work they carry out, year after year, ensuring this magazine is received by as many people as possible.
Mr Estee answered the doorbell this morning. A couple of dubs presented him with the invitation to a convention. Mr Estee promptly deposited it in the recycling bin. Steve, I read your bio. I agree with your philosophy. The more we think we have the truth, the more we close our mind to other knowledge. I agree. Thanks for sharing that beautiful jewel of a statement.

The Washtowel rags are not the most read in the world. You might get someone that is bored and too lazy to do anything about it to read them, but most of the rags that get placed end up either in the garbage or the shredder.
In our home it is the recycler. But it counts as a placement and we get put in their records as interested. Mr Estee, in his kind way, takes all literature offered.
