  My JW elderly aunt just called me..........

  by Mulan in

  1. jw

  she lives thousands of miles away from me, and called me now to tell me how much she loves me and misses me, and she started crying, and could hardly get out the words, about the wt study for tomorrow.

  she begged me to go to the meeting and hear the information, so i compromised with her and told her i would get a copy of the magazine and read it.. i felt so badly for her.

  we were always very close, and her daughter, my late cousin sharon, who died in 2001, was my closest friend in my life.

  That is a very hard situation to be in, Mulan. It's so hard to deal with the JWs who are truly sincere. Especially the elderly ones who are mentally still in a different decade when the JWs had a glimmering of love amongst themselves.
  
  What's in the study article that got her so worked up?
  
  Best wishes,

  hello all...i've been searching for some sort of comfort in my situation.

  i found a story written by "iamfreenow" aka marion.

  i found some comfort to know that i am not alone in my challenging of my faith.

  Hi Mals, welcome to JWD. I really don't know what to say as far as advise goes. Just don't think that you have to make decisions until you feel ready to make them. There are many here in similar situations, so keep reading.

  Please say hello to my wife.

  i've been posting here for quite a long time, so long in fact that it just doesn't feel right that my wife isn't a part of it.

  earlier today i created an account for her with the username heron, she'll know why.

  i'm not sure if my wife will ever post here but i would feel much more comfortable knowing she is aware that i do.. this is the one post i am going to ask her to read.. so, i'd really appreciate it if you could say hello to my lovely wife.

  I didn't go and look at the video clip, it takes too long on dial-up. But, if it's the Stanley Theatre you're talking about, the chandeliers were already there when they bought the place.

  I don't remember the music sounding like that at any of our assemblies. Since when do the JWs use choirs? It makes it sound like the nice music in one of "Christendom's" places of worship.
