Lately I've been thinking of have a sincere talk with my husband about letting him go so that he could find that 'spiritual' person within the WBTS with whom to climb their 'corporate ladder' and be happily ever after in JW-land.
There you have it. That's what I've been toying with in my mind for the past couple of days.
DY - I'll miss him terribly. I love him more than I've ever loved anyone ever.
she has something called, corticobasildegeneration.

Sorry to hear about your mother.

just a little bit about myself before you answer:
i was raised a jehovah's witness by my mother, who got "the truth" by studying with inlaws who were already members.
my father had been disfellewshipped for joining the army a few years before i was born, and has nevered returned to the organization.
My marriage wouldn't survive. Although we love each other, the WBTS is what's most in common between us.
My husband came out of a tough life and the WBTS made a much better person out of him. He's said in the past that he'd go back to his old ways if he was to leave the religion.
I believe him.

i would've called myself moderate leaning toward liberal.
Liberal.

the pro's always say the best goals are those that are written down.. do you have goals?.
when i was a kid in school the teachers always pushed the idea of goals.
i never did because the big a was right around the cornor.
Retire at 67 1/2 with enough health to enjoy retirement.

i have been disfellowshipped for 7 years now, and the other day my mom says she is supposed to stop associating with me.
i know i'm df'd, but i'm family.
i am so upset by them.
In this last District Assembly they said it loud and clear a few times: "Stop all association with disfellowshipped and disassociated ones, even if they're family".
I wouldn't have believed it myself if I didn't hear it. I thought family was different, but apparently not anymore.

i was looking at my "favorites" and here are some that i like to look at: my homepage is the drudge report.
other favs include jwc, accuweather, the urban dictionary, tracone world newspaper page, the new york post and craiglist to name a few.
what about you?
as you guys may know, i don't ask too many questions on the forum, as i feel that i have a pretty good grasp on things.
but this... i am clueless on..
starting sometime next week, i will have my own apartment.
I lived alone for several periods in my life. I've never had a problem since I'm kind of a loner of sorts.
Between work and playing some sport, or joining a book club, or doing charity work of some type, my life was filled during those times in which I had to live alone.
I hope you'll do just fine when you have a place of your own.

a good friend who is a police officer told me last night that he believes a lot of the jw's he has met through the years in his line of work are extremely self-righteous.
i didn't have much of a reply but it did get me thinking about what he said.
so, what do you guys think?
I think that would qualify for "Understatement Of The Year" award.
Of course JWs are among the most self-righteous people on earth!

.
just wondering, has anyone ever had premonition dreams?.
evanescence.
I used to dream about getting destroyed in Armagedon all the time. Not once in the past 9 months or so.
