I love Queen Mab for a dog's name. But I am renowned for funny or weird names. My two cats are called Figo (As in Figaro) and Jinxie (As in people were warning me about two cats so often, that I said they were jinxing it).

I also like Mrs. Jones, Jonesy for short.

hmmm, its 9.14 AM and I am sitting/slouching on my couch, watching CNN and doing absolutly nothing. Around noon I'll get in my car (if the snow has stopped falling) and from that time on nothing but fun and friends all day/night long.

Lawdy, where have I been?

in a move calculate to strike fear in the hearts of, um, well, everybody, i joined the army.

i just got back from basic, where i learned the value of paying attention to detail, and am now ready to ship off to ft. benning to go to army officer candidate school.. i just wanted to post, say hello, and say that while i haven't written much lately, i've been peeking in to see what everybody is up to.

my message to lurkers is the same as always, that is, you can indeed move beyond the jw's and become so much more than a shallow, hollow, sad carbon copy.

Wishing you luck and safety. And thanks for the laugh: "You can be the google-dimensional miracle you were always meant to be" .. lol

Is spiritual compatibility important?

by serendipity in

how important is/was spirituality to you when considering a person as a husband/wife?

did you expect the person to have similar spiritual beliefs and goals?

if s/he didn't have similar beliefs, was it important to be able to discuss spirituality respectfully ?

Vivamus

As long as we both can talk about it in a respectfull matter to eachother ... it doesn't bother me. Don't try to convert me, and I shan't try to make you a disbeliever ...

Your first talk at the Theorcatic Ministry School, do you remember it?

i do, i had to read ezekiel 9: (1-11)

and he proceeded to call out in my ears with a loud voice, saying: have those giving their attention to the city come near, each one with his weapon in his hand for bringing ruin!

there were six men coming from the direction of the upper gate that faces to the north, each one with his weapon for smashing in his hand; and there was one man in among them clothed with linen, with a secretarys inkhorn at his hips, and they proceeded to come in and stand beside the copper altar.

Vivamus

I don't remember what it was about. I *do* remember I was irritated that I had to talk to another sister since I as a woman was not allowed to the congregation. And I also *do* remeber that even tho I received nothing but praise, I was scorned that the elder who was judging my performance was a terrible public speaker himself...

I was so bad, no wonder they kicked me out, not a grain of humility in me
