Lee.. i too was touched by your story. please remember that even though your both grown and older that the memories we have as children are the most vivid and stay in our hearts for life. i'm sure theres a part of him that yearns to have you in his life as well , even if he cant verbalize it or make it happen.

and boy did i feel guilty back then.. i mean they said the F word in that movie!!(which was a word i never heard til i was married) i was a big dudley fan since arthur and after my pioneer bro in law and his pioneer buds all talked about seeing pretty woman i decided the heck with it.. i'm just a mere lil publisher and if THEY can see rated r movies so can i.

seen it.. didnt think it was any big deal. didnt really watch any other rated r ones till a few years later after my ex cheated on me and was disfellowshipped.. he tried to cram a lotta things into his 4 yrs of being df'd that he couldnt do when he was in good standing. he shocked me! he wouldnt go to theaters in case someone seen him but he'd rent movies a lot.

now i have hbo and shotime etc..and watch movies according to what interests me. last night i watched monster with charlize theron and it was a really good movie. its so sad what circumstance does to people. we who have had relatively stable lives find it easy to judge hookers and druggies and criminals.. self righteously saying " they have choices' but as i've opened up more and watched tv, read newspapers and magazines along with reading online and associating with people other than family and jw's, i've come to the conclusion some people do not have choices, or rather the coping skills to get by in life

sometimes i'm so glad i WAS so sheltered all my life.. then other times i wish i'd not been so sheltered and feel guilty that i'm just now learning compassion at almost 40 yrs old.

"Where scriptural matters are not involved"

by Wild_Thing in

when i was reading that article on "beware of the voice of strangers" (sept 1, 2004 wt) i couldn't help but notice the last few paragraphs of the preceding article.

in the last paragraph, it says:.

"although our views on matters where scriptural principles are not involved may vary somewhat, in matters of worship, we act in complete unison.".

candidlynuts

so this was in the context of global witnesses ?

that is a surprising comment to me as well.. i bet you wont see that sentence anywhere in the old united in worship book.
