how sorry i was to hear from dansk-he is going through a very difficult time.. i would like all prayers, thoughts, please keep this in mind ____ for me!!!!.
the sad news he has cancer.it is lymphoma!!!
they are waiting on the results of the biopsy before determining treatment..... he didnt want me to say anything at first- as he feels you all have your own problems & he didnt want to upset anyone-because he says "they are dear friends".
Ian,
Today seems to be a big meditation day for me. Just wanted to let you know that I am thinking about you and your family. Thank you for telling us all about all of the different treatments that you are open to trying. It again is a reminder of how big and diverse the world really is. I am so happy that you are open to all of the possibilities.
You are truly an inspiration to me and others! God bless you today and always.
Love Jill

Hello! I hope you are having a good day today. I just came upon this thread and have been crying as I read the entire thing. What a beautiful man you are. You are loved and thought of so kindly. I am praying and will continue to pray for you and your family as you go through this ordeal. God be with you and yours-

aside from the reasons jws give as it being a pagan holiday renamed..... i do not like the fact that parents think nothing of lying to their children about this mythical santa claus.
and the constant hollywood movies making anyone who exposes the gag as an evil monster...while giving children reasons to believe that santa claus really does exist after all...ignore your older friends who have been poisoned by the secular world.. i find it appalling to ever teach a child to simply expect people to give them things just because the calendar says a certain day.. i find the mindless devoution to christmas to be just as appalling as the brainwashing jws do against it... i see people in my office acting like german clocks... the clock strikes easter and the decorate the office, strikes holloween and they decorate again...strikes christmas and more decorations..... then the frets and worries over what to get who and how much to go into debt over it.. i knew one lady who spent over $300 on a child less than two and was very depressed about two weeks later when the novelty wore off and only very inexpensive things returned as the main attraction.
I love Christmas. My kids love celebrating. I love the smells, colors, lights, etc. I love to bring out the decorations and hang them everywhere. I like the additions of color in my house and I love to decorate the Christmas tree.
My kids have always know Santa wasn't real and they would ruin it for my friends children. Of course, the parents always appreciated that! NOT! The kids know the gifts are from us, and they know the amount of gifts varies from year to year depending on our cash availability. They are never upset when it is a lean year and they have always been greatful when it is a plentiful year. I think kids need to learn how to give. My parents celebrated their anniversary when I was growing up a Dub. I used to say that I didn't miss anything by not celebrating B-days or holidays, but really, I never had them growing up so how could I miss them. I am glad that we celebrate now.
The first year that my husband and I decided to go back to the hall we threw all of our Christmas stuff out. Everything that his grandmother made him over his lifetime (stocking, tree skirt for our wedding, etc.). I feel terribly guilty now because he always feels the loss at Christmas and she recently passed away. We had to say we lost it in a move.
please dont take offence but ive just realised something maybe its been touched on before,.but when i was reading the thread on bil cosby i read the one off obviously secret.
now as i am a white person i assumed he was white until he stated he was black.
so when i thought about it, i imagine everyone on this site is white, does everyone who is black imagine everyone else is black, and anyone oriental imagine everyone else is oriental.
I love reading this! I am having a wonderful time trying to picture everyone. (So fun)
Anyway- I happen to be German, Irish, Cherokee Indian, & Dutch........a white woman who happens to have extreemly naturally curly brown hair. In the winter I am majorly pale, but in the summer I tan a nice red-brown color thanks to the Indian in my family line.
there is only so far you can go in inflicting just punishment upon an evil person.
yet how evil is someone who has murdered one person in cold blood, compared to someone who is guilty of genocide?
the crime of murder is heinous in itself, but does the fact that someone may be responsible for millions of deaths make the crime of multiple murder a million times worse than the person who kills only once?
He should be put to death. Putting him in prision for the rest of his life will only cost money in the long run and we all know he won't be fed bread and water, etc. Be done with it.
i will probably have a cook out with my kids and play volley ball.
what special plan's do you all have?
please have a safe and great holiday and to all that are going to be alone,i do think of you and wish you could join me, it would be my pleasure.
The hubbie, kids and in-laws and I will be in Northern Pa at our cabin in the mountains. The best fireworks display (in the middle of two mountains). No tv, but thank God for running water, potty and a shower! Much fun, much fun, much fun! The trout stream behind the cabin is pretty nice too!

wrong or right?.
right to choose, or murder?.
what is everyones point of view?.
I am pro-choice. It is a horrible choice to have to make and I don't believe it should be made lightly.
i had my girls over last night for dinner.
during the conversation, we talked about a number of things, in where i detected that they have grown up so much in making decisions for themselves that are totally contrary to the borg beliefs and standards.
the movies they watch, music they listen to, people they hang out with, parties they go to, video games they play.. i have talked to my girls everyday since last week.
Wonderful! So glad to hear that things are better for you and your children. I hope you have many more visits!

ok there are so many americans on the map now i had to split you all in half.. valis was kind enough to let me place the maps on his website until i found a new home for them.. photobucket seems to be a good option - at least for now.
so i have uploaded the new maps which have been updated to include everyone who has asked.. so if you were wondering where we are from.
or how close you are to other jwd posters in your area just take a look.
Lady Lee,
Please add me to the map. I am in Pennsylvania.
