Grateful
by alfie inwell, it's thanksgiving for us here in the great white north, and we (my wife and i) wanted to extend our thoughts of gratitude to all on the board.
it's a funny thing, the way the wbts tells us that we shouldn't have to set aside a special day for the giving of thanks; that it should be something we do automatically every day.
however, i find myself reflecting on the time spent in servitude to this organization and recall how to the average r&f witness, every day was spent, not on thoughts of giving thanks, but rather on ekeing out an existence and pounding a beat with the literature supposedly designed to draw people's attention to god's kingdom.

Hi Mim, I wasn't trying to steal any thunder. Actually I didn't even know there had been a post re Thanksgiving as I don't read every article on the board. I just had to express myself. My sincerest apologies.

What's Your Favorite Quote?
by Perry ini ran across this recently.
so, i guess its my new favorite quote.
"the difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast: the chicken was 'involved' - the pig was 'committed'.

Well, it's Thanksgiving for us here in the Great White North, and We (my wife and I) wanted to extend our thoughts of gratitude to all on the board. It's a funny thing, the way the WBTS tells us that we shouldn't have to set aside a special day for the giving of thanks; that it should be something we do automatically every day. However, I find myself reflecting on the time spent in servitude to this organization and recall how to the average R&F witness, every day was spent, not on thoughts of giving thanks, but rather on ekeing out an existence and pounding a beat with the literature supposedly designed to draw people's attention to God's kingdom. It seems to me that "the world" does a better job at focusing people's attention on the need to be grateful for "small mercies". Not, of course, that everybody thinks in this way, a lot seeing Thanksgiving as just another long weekend, still in all, I think the WBTS could learn something(perish the thought) from people for whom it has such contempt. Just a thought.

Do You Ever "MISS" Being A JW, Elder,...
by minimus ini recently was told by a couple of elders how much they "missed" me since i am no longer an elder.
i got to thinking , "did i miss anything because i'm not an elder?".
i have to say that i really can't think of anything that i truly miss.

The owner of this drug store walks in to find a guy leaning heavily against
a wall.
The owner asks the clerk "What's with that guy over there by the wall?" and
the clerk says "Well, he came in here this morning to get something for his
cough. I couldn't find the cough syrup, so I gave him an entire bottle of
laxative." and the owner goes "You idiot!
You can't treat a cough with a bottle of laxatives!" and the clerk goes, "Of
course you can! Look at him; he's afraid to cough!" -

I would comment on the moronic behaviour and actions of other drivers, however my modesty AND perfection allow me to offer only a mild expletive and/or tsk,tsk.
