Jim, I totally agree with Blondie's words, and I can't say it any better.
Hugs.

"Why show me these things if I am beyond all hope?"
by SanFranciscoJim ini just got finished watching yet another version of a christmas carol (this time, the one starring patrick stewart -- one of the better remakes).. those who are familiar with the story will recall when the mysterious ghost of christmas yet to come escorts scrooge into the cemetery and shows him his own grave, scrooge replies with the question: "why show me these things if i am beyond all hope?".
perhaps it's just my usual holiday season depression, but i am in a particularly dark mood tonight.. no spirits have ever visited me.
even god has not made his presence known to me in any manner that i would consider what the bible refers to as "evident demonstration".. i therefore have to draw the conclusion that either my time has not come yet (which i hope), or that i am indeed beyond all hope.

I thought about lighting a ciggie on that bathroom, but I didn't dare, cuz as my boyfriend informed me once ... the smell lingers for hours
Sheila, yep, you are totally right, I won't have that ordeal for another year ...

I got this entire family that I don't really know. And what's worse, I don't fit in there. And what's even more worse than that. ... I don't really care. My dad and I get along good enough, thanx to my fake mummy. But if it weren't for her, I suspect he would have thrown me outta the house long ago (again) and I would have ... well, you get the drift. Dad has one brother and one sister and one mother. And his mum is so .... stiff. She is of the old high-class, she has the minister on Sunday's visit, her late husband was part of the *nobility* by being a doctor... Anyway, she is just stiff. She is sweet, no doubt, but there is too much resentment with me of how she treated my mum in the past, and I can't stand the "oh my darlin granddaughter, finally you have come back in my life". Blech, I mean, she knew where I lived, she had a car, and she had a phone ... how difficult is that ? But, no hard feelings for the past. I don't hold it against my dad, so it would be unfair to hold it against her. Fact is, I feel totally uncomfortable the one time in the year I am there. I know, I could put an effort into getting to know her, but I don't wanne. And I can't get out of that one-time-a-year-visit, cuz my dad would never forgive me. You see, that event, is her birthday. And that event was yesterday. Lol, so I dressed to impress, or at least, to not look like the yeans-wearing-pierced-rebel that I am, and got myself into a black skirt, red high leather boots, and a black top. Looked good, even if I do say so myself. And I sat there, knees nicely together, and drank my juice. Not that juice was being served to the rest, the rest drank large amounts of alcohol, but I had a minor headache, and didn't want to make that worse. Large amounts of alcohol strangely enough didn't improve the non-existing joy these people displayed.... I swear, that whole setting is just weird for me, that family will have moments of silence, where everyone is sitting demurly. The food is properly admired etc, etc. So not like *my* family, which is loud and merry and drinks, eats and smokes at will. Smoking btw, is not-done in there.... But, I did have one moment of utter and unfaked pleasure. I escaped into my grandmothers bathroom, for some sanity ... and I saw on my mobile phone that my bestest friend had tried to call me. So I called back, and whispered "I can't talk loud, cuz I am in my grandmothers bathroom, for the love of god, save me!". I felt like a drug-addict sneaking away to get on a high ... lol. He laughed, I laughed, and that short conversation helped me pull through the next two hours. I was so happy when I got home, Free again for another year. - Blue Bubblegum Girl

Thinking of becoming a JW - Need urgent honest advice!!!
by natalienu ini have met a wonderful man but unfortunately he is a jw.
i have never been interested or really ever been around any religion in my life so all of this right now is very fascinating to me.
i have been thinking of studying to become one but am also having a hard time finding anything on the net that is positive about it.

From the bottom of my heart: NO, it is not.
When you are a JW, and truly believe in it, it feels like the best thing ever happened to you. You are surrounded by people who think like you, act like you, and believe like you. They feel like your family, best friends and you will feel at home whenever you enter the Kingdom Hall.
Note, that is when you truly believe, and are in good standing.
The problem is, that when you express doubts, or desires to act just a little bit different from the rest, the so called sh*t hits the fan. Because as a dub, you are required to follow every command given to you. Individual thoughts are not allowed. No JW will admit this, and I don't even think they feel like this, cuz most of them are conditioned to think like the Watchtower wants them to think, so every thought they have, feels like their own.
If you want to talk about it, feel free to mail me at [email protected]

I found out, once again, I am a true royalty lover.
To be specific ... A true lover of the Oranje-Nassau family.
I love our Queen and family. Our head of state is raised from day one to 'rule' the country. Not that our beloved Queen actually rules anything, apart from her family. She is carefully restricted from doing so. But still, she is our Queen, our international face, our pride.Forget all those nay-sayers. I love her, she is classy, has style, knows how to behave in public and I love her. I mean, no way she'd ever throw up on the Japanese Prime Minister, or insults the British Queen by bringing a goddamn army of cooks to Buckingham palace. No, our Bea is refined.
And on top of all that.... That family is like our own real-life soapopera. The family always gives us food for gossip and hilarious images. Like when Prince Friso got engaged to Mabel, who, as turned out later, is a real gangster-lovin'-babe ... That was fun.
But the best we get from them are the royal weddings ... and the royal babies. Last weekend I was glued to the telly, awaiting the news ... We got a new Princess. This lil' cute girl is second in line to the throne, her parents are our heir to the throne, Prince Willem-Alexander and Princess Maxima. I will see baby Princess Catharina-Amalia Beatrix Carmen Victoria become Queen someday.*Is a true fan of the family*
