i go to get my drivers license renewed today and wouldn't you know.. a jw waited on me.. she was looking at my address and saying about how the assembly hall is right there... yada yada yada.. i paused for a second wondering if i should pretend to be a jw still.. i mean i needed my license.. and i was a little concerned she was going to push for proof of insurance (which i forgot to bring with me).. so i wanted to be on her good side.. then it dawned on me.....i had checked the box about registering to vote.......
exnay on the pretending to be a jw still..
then i thought i could say my mom was a jw.. a pioneer even..
If you don't mind than they don't matter
ok, who remembers all those long prayers?
especially at the district conventions!.
we had our convetions at a small hockey arena and the stairs were really steep.
When I was a kid, we had our conventions at the race track.....
In my head I can still hear the prays echoing down the halls.
Our, our, our, heavenly, heaveny, heavenly, father, father, father, Jehovah,
Jehovah, Jehovah....................
Got the Looooong prayers over and over and over............
birthday on monday the 12th and i was home sick but still got a visit from my daughter and xwife (who is still a good friend of mine).
i have had now 3 of these bdays...and am not sure if i am feelin it or not...i think i do..it feels good, a warm feeling when my 3 year old daughter flings her arms around my neck and says happy bday daddy...it also hurts too..am having a bday party this weekend with my roommate and friends at my place and will probably be thrashed but i still dont know if i am ever going to totally "get it".
it has been a while since i posted here but it seems the only real place that other people understand the "emptiness" as i call it.
I wonder if, along with all the deprogramming, we could find a Programming Kit for birthdays and Holidays, so we could actually feel the joy of them.
Wouldn't that be nice.......
If you ever find it send it this way....
I've missed so much.....
After my wife stopped going to meetings my son said "Now we can be normal".
I wonder if we can?
Anyway, Happy belated Birthday

Got me!
last year, the society confirmed that they were releasing an updated version of the shining as illuminators book.
this book is the manual used in the pioneer school and is about the same size as the revelation book and has a light blue cover.
on the congregation noticeboard, a letter is posted listing names of persons who previously attended pioneer school, and are now being asked to go back to another pioneer school to consider this newly revised book.
I was a pioneer for 5 years, my wife and I attended the class together.
I wonder if they will invite us back.........hmm............no I don't think so
hi everyone, glad to be here.
i've been to and posted at a couple of other ex-jw sites.
thought i'd drop a line to you guys.
Welcome welcome,
I needed to do this myself.........
"try to see through the eyes of a child"
Even pickup a bible that was written for kids........
International Children's Bilbe
Took over ten years before I could read it without thinking the way of the "TRUTH"
Now I see it so clear!
hi there clinton, and welcome to this lively and fun forum!.
i've read your 3 posts so far.
feel free to introduce yourself and tell a little about your jw experience whenever you're ready..
Hello Clinton,
Welcome Aboard!
Yep! Why would a young man tie himself to a sister when the
lord's work was at hand....... I always wonder how the
sisters took it back then.
Now that is one big pussy!
