an interesting development in the coatbridge congregation just outside glasgow a while back....
anointed member got df-ed and another cong member started taking the emblems 'as his replacement'
df-ed member gets reinstated and both continue to take emblems

when i first started on this forum typing was not really a natural activity for me it was slow and i didn't have the patience to write long posts as i would have liked.
now i got used to it a lot better so i don't mind typing long posts more often.
what sort of experiences do other jwd members?
I learned to type on those old mechanical typwriters when I was in school. We had to put a cloth over our hands and keyboard so that we couldnt see what we were doing. I got quite good but now 30 years later the keyboard "feels" different and I have gone back to the old 2 finger way, im quite fast.....................for my age

my sister is visiting me for a week, she knows i dont go to meeting but has never asked me about it, she would find shunning really hard so i dont think she wants to confront me although she did ask my non witness sister but she didnt tell her anything.. so if she does ask, i was wondering the best way to deal with it.

So here goes again. My sister is visiting me for a week, she knows i dont go to meeting but has never asked me about it, she would find shunning really hard so i dont think she wants to confront me although she did ask my non witness sister but she didnt tell her anything.

"If you were offered a red pill or a blue pill which one would you choose. If it was the red one , everything in your life would stay the same, but i couldnt tell you anything.........................but if you chose the blue pill your life would never be the same again, even if you wanted it to be, but you would know the truth"
If she said the red pill, I wouldnt say a thing, but if she said the blue pill where would I start. Should I talk to her , send her here , give her Crisis of Conscience to read ??
Another problem is she is a single mum, with no other support system other than the Borg all her friends are JWs. But saying that she has no social life now
I feel I owe her the opportunity and for the sake of her 12 year old son but I live too far away to help her when the bomb really hits home and shes on her own. I went through hell when I found out but I had a husband for support
What would you do ??
i work with a lot of people who are very sexually active.
which should mean they are real happy, right?
after all, isn't sex the best feeling in the world and that is why we have such a strong internal sex drive.

i'm wide awake at 2 a.m., with my mind ruminating on stuff i should leave alone.
i wish i could turn it off in the night, when worries spin out of control.
let me list my concerns: this was my 26th wedding anniversary, and my husband forgot it apparently.
You can judge your future by your past.......................do you want to spend the next 26 years like the last 26 ????
