Many would do well to listen to you.

I wish someone would tell that to my children. They just think i'm trying to be bossy.

Hey Scoob,

Welcome to the forum.I hope you stay a long time.

And thats the way it should be Shamus.

WH......they just don't realise what they got yet.

How arrogant is that.......and they moved on?

How arrogant is it of you to think that we would profer listening to the half in half out all the time? How many posts have you made like that? I'm not trying to be arrogant and as I have pointed out in other posts you are either not giving yourself enough credit, or just plain stupid, or you are dragging this out and can't make up your mind for some mysterious reason. Many times I find this contraindicative to a lot of the work people do here. If you can't see that then the second option seems to fit rather well.

Sincerely,

That could be said about you on this forum also. You are a diamond in the rough. (shut up all you others. I can say how I feel and this is how I feel) Some people here just haven't looked deep enough to see it.

Well, what I've seen is that you have a struggle going on inside yourself. No matter what the outcome of that struggle, I will always count you as a friend.

Valis

Wild...are you speaking to me?

Gumby,

Craig,
You can't have it both ways.
Let's not forget something. You yourself took 10 years to come to the conclusion it was not the truth ....AFTER you were shown otherwise. It's true one should get off the pot, but another thing to be able to do so. It's easier to see this AFTER you are all the way out.

Point well taken, and I've been very open with everyone about how long it took me to actually do something about what I already had known for years.

Scott, I didn't mean to offend you in what I said. I've learned a lot this last year about "speaking my mind," and am still striking toward a balance.

From my heart, I wish you well.

Sincerely,

Craig

I know ya have craig, and that's why I mentioned it......and that's why your such a great guy!

I have learned that the emotional struggle for some is beyond what I know or anyone else. We expect others to see things as we see it or saw it....and we forget.......were all so different. I remember the first on this board to stuggle with this and it was Joel. I couldn't understand his reasoning until I saw others struggle with the same thing.....yourself included.

Firstly Valis....... I wouldn't profer to speak on behalf of the majority as you do, you see to me that would be arrogance in itself.. I'm sure others will and would agree with you, alot silently and some vocally on here. I could name a few myself. And good luck to them in their views.

I know I've made the same posts, maybe again and again. But on this forum, that is my right. I do suprisingly give myself credit for alot of things, for one I'm particularly proud of the career I trained hard to do, and carry out. Its important you know this, so you know that I don't think of myself as a pathetic individual. I love nursing and managing a ward, and I give my best to the patients and the team of nurses I support and manage. I'm proud of that.

The JW question is another thing altogether, I do still support them in many ways, I have strong convictions in myself still. I know by now what this forum is all about, and like many I do use it as a sounding board. I've said so many times that the majority of posts here will of course be against. Sometimes I post in favour of some people, other times I kick and don't agree at all. I have to be able to post what I feel and think here though. This is what this forum claims to be on its mast head, open, and everyone welcome. I don't expect a pat on the back, everytime, but you would do better not to be so black and white in your assumptions of someones thoughts and feelings.

Why do you feel so much that this in some way harms the nature or harmony of this forum, I assume thats what you mean by what you say. Why? what do you hope to achieve here by that line of reasoning? I'm interested sometimes how that works.

Sincerely of course as always.

eh...the majority? I never said I did, but as you said there are many that would agree. That doesn't make it a majority.

But on this forum, that is my right.

yep...and its my right to ask you to make up your mind. Which you can't do for whatever reason.

I love nursing and managing a ward, and I give my best to the patients and the team of nurses I support and manage. I'm proud of that.

yes and I suppose you would be inclined to say to all the suffering in your hospital to "Just wait on Jehovah" although you know that if they are not JWs then Jehovah aint got nothin for them. AND sometime you might have to help administer a life saving transfusion. Would that be on your conscience?

The JW question is another thing altogether, I do still support them in many ways, I have strong convictions in myself still.

yes and why should people coddle supporters who know better? Gay and in a crisis of conscience...whatever.

Why do you feel so much that this in some way harms the nature or harmony of this forum, I assume thats what you mean by what you say. Why? what do you hope to achieve here by that line of reasoning? I'm interested sometimes how that works.

well, perhaps your ongoing questioning doesn't include all the facts as we know it. It is two faced and decietful IMO. If you really think every new person is going to go back and read all the mess you have posted in the past then I say you are sadly mistaken. Don't follow spilling your guts by impeeding others from checking out what has to be said, versus seeing other "witnesses" struggle and feel any kind of guilt.

Sincerely,
