  2. friends

  in my writing class, my teacher has asked us to describe something that we used to treasure but now loathe.

  so my paper will be about the district convention.

  i need some great words to describe my feelings...boredom just skims the surface...the best adjective gets a free pizza!

  did any of you read the entire bible once...?

  by Richie in

  just wanted to know if any of you have read the entire bible?

  - i remember that it was mentioned in the congregation many times that this would be a requirement that we were to read the bible in its totality at least once and especially as elders!.

  i myself never had the time (or energy) to read the scriptures from cover to cover.

  Desi,

  Would you put everything else back out before i visit? Especially the "bad movies and such"?

  P.S. Could you get the current Playboy for me before i visit again?

  The less guilt i feel for every little thought or desire i have. Which by the way are normal desires and thoughts. The guilt i felt as a JW was oppresive. I am so relieved now and feel like such a weight has been lifted from me!! It has taken years though to work through the feelings of guilt though and may never forget those feelings of trying so hard but never feeling good enough. Am i alone in this?

  anyone read this book?

  what's you're reaction, if any, to the basic premis of the book (that the holy grail is ... oops - i don't want to spoil it for those who haven't read it yet).

  the author takes a ficticious incident and weaves some little-known yet interesting and provacative facts throughout his story.

  someone mentioned this in one of their posts and i had a flashback.

  i remember getting a w on one of my theocratic school talks when i was working on gesturing.

  the funny thing about it is that it was given to me by my dad!

  Higher Education

  well, let's try posting a topic.

  one of the things i felt i missed out on while i was a witness, other than wild sex when young is higher education.

  i quit hs to pioneer and now have just recently finished a college degree and am still working on my masters, but i find myself resenting that i have had to do this all at night and while in my forties.
