Do you find any value in attending the occaisonal meeting?
by 24k indo you still attend the occaisonal meeting with your believing family members?
if so, do you find any value in what's presented?
i still attend the occaisonal sunday meeting with my believing wife in an effort to show my respect for her feelings and my willingness to be tolerant.

Excellent post 24k! My feelings exactly the few times I attended to please my mother in recent years. The only benefit I got was the very clear reminder of all the good reasons I wasn't going.

My 8 Foot R/C Plane * update * - She Flies!
by FMZ inyep, that's right, she had her maiden flight this morning... it was beautiful!.
after one bum takeoff attempt (i had one of the servos reversed... hehe), i fixed the problem and tried again.. i increased throttle a little, she slowly taxied forward, a little more power bit by bit, and there she went... up into the air, gliding beautifully.
it was amazing watching this thing i had built from little bits of foam and glue take to the sky.

Wishing you many more days of flying fun

Not sure if I made a wrong move
by redskymedic ini posted here a bit a while back.
quick background- df-ed when i was 21 (10 yrs ago), left the jw's as a single mom with a 3 yr old son.
jw mom helped me raise him for the first few years, so my departure was a sticky family mess.

Sorry, Red. I just hate what their "love" puts people through, especially family. Wish I could wisely advise, but all I can really do is offer my caring and support. Sounds to me like you did the right thing for you. I used to play by their cruel disfellowshipping rules myself but no more! Like you, I don't want my child to get the idea that their treatment of DFs and DAs is acceptable to me. It isn't.
All my best to you! Stay strong...

Shifty little eyes
Shifty little feet
Whistles to himself
As he rocks to his own beat
He's got those
Something's--gonna--get--me--
This--life'll--never--fit--me--
Yellow--bird--in--a--cage blues...
A prisoner of time and space
A captive behind bars
Dreaming he can fly
While he gazes at the stars
And sings those
Something's--gonna--get--me--
This--world--has--up--and--quit--me--
Yellow--bird--in--a--cage blues...
He don't like it in this place
But he's afraid he'll never leave
No one to watch his back
All he can do is bob and weave
And keep on singin' those
Something'--gonna--get--me--
Chew--me--up--and--spit--me--out--
Yellow--bird--in--a--cage blues...
And I'm a lot like him, you see,
Just give me my own mirror,
A place where I can perch,
And I'll sing for you, my dear
'Cause I know those
Something's--gonna--get--me--
Though--I--know--you'd--never--hit--me--
Yellow--bird--in--a--cage--
Always--trapped--on--center--stage--
You--can--never--set--me--free--
So--go--away--and--let--me--be--
It--doesn't--matter--anyway blues............birdseed!
