121Turn away from these wicked ways!
by Proud Witness inwell as you would have guessed from my name, i am a proud witness and i feel obliged to preach to you about the promises that our wonderful creator, jehovah god, has promised each and every one of us, of any race or background.
i know that you already know what he has told us through his word, but i am curious to wonder why you have chosen to jump off the narrow road which leads to everlasting life.
is it because you have had a bad experience in god's organization?

Random Act of Kindness
by cruzanheart inlast year, as many of you know, my dad committed suicide.
a couple of months after his death, i was in our local petsmart and started talking to a really cool dog trainer.
he was bright, loved animals, and had one of his dogs with him (who obviously adored him and did everything he asked).

Food Drives, did you donate when you were a JW?
by codeblue intoday our postal carriers are having a food drive.. i was showing my hubby the things i rounded up and asked about giving something else...he said...no...i said: "well, why shouldn't we, we have plenty"..he then said "sure".. we then had a discussion about if jw's ever give on such occasions for food drives.
i for one, did not, and i am ashamed to say that too.. so, did you give to food drives when you were a jw?.

Are JW's embarrassed about being JW's?

JW cannots........
by Nan ini couldn't believe this list of cannots that jws have to adhere to!
i already knew about the holidays, blood tranfusions, the pledge, etc.
there's maybe one or two that i would agree are for your own good, but the rest are ridiculous!!

Mom came to visit, tried sticking the elders on me!
by Eyebrow2 inwell, my mom came down for a visit...she was her for about 9 days.
she mostly got to spend time with my kids, since i had to work, and was away for 4 of those days (she came down at this time partly so i could go away with my husband for a short trip).. now, my mom is one of the sweetest people in the world, but a die hard jw.
there is a hall about 1/2 mile away from me, so i made sure she was able to make her meetings while she was down here.
