What kind of music do you listen to?

i'm a music junkie, i like pretty much all types of music.

but in particular i would have to say jazz is my favorite, but not the watered down kenny g style of jazz.

i prefer the straight ahead, hard bop type of jazz.. lately i've been really getting into psychedelia rock.

Should we fear death?

by sleepy in

should we fear death?.

how do you feel about dying?.

after leaving the witnesses i find i am ever more aware of my own mortality.before i could comfort myself with the idea that i could be ressurected.i think the realisation that death will completly end my life , and that there was nothing afterward , was one of the most difficult things to come to terms with.. generally i don't think about it , but when some happens and i do , the idea , quite frankly scares the hell out of me.. but does death really bring the end to us?.

Should we fear death?

sometimes. i think we all go through a period where we realize that we won't be around forever and we get scared. but there is absolutly no sense in constantly fearing the one thing that is absolutly going to happen to ever single one of us. don't waste LIFE being afraid of DEATH!
for me, i'm more afraid that i will die before i get a chance to do a lot of the things i hope to do someday.

How do you feel about dying?

well, i'd like to stick around for awhile but i know that at some point i'm going to die, and it doesn't bother me.
sometimes i wonder about when and how.. and sometimes i even fantasize about my death, but i'm not afraid of it.
my friends and family members dying is bit of a different story tho..

But does death really bring the end to us?

yes. death is the absolute end. death = nothingness.

Do you have a secret hope that there is something after life on earth?

not at all. if i hoped for that (which i USED to) then i know that i wouldn't try very hard to make this life the best one i could. i'd just think that i had endless time to make things work.

Do you have reason or proof that there is?

nope. there is no way to proove that heaven, hell, any type of spiritual world, god, gods, angels, etc are 'real' or just some fantasy!

Or do you think that future civillitations could actually bring us back to life?

no. but they can always try . i don't think i'd want to be brought back to life, especially in the far future. i died, let me rest dammit!

while relaxing with my morning java at the local coffee joint i suddenly noticed window-washing equipment moving across the glassed surfaces of the restaurant.

yes, there was one of the local j-dubs hard at it.

the strange thing was the height of his helper ... about the height of an 8-year-old.

So much for that little guys childhood

lizzy , i hope you aren't referring to the 8 year old in wheel's post! what are you basing that comment on? because he went to work with his dad? because he wasn't in school? you guys don't know the circumstance! i really don't see the big deal. tell me, please.

What's happening to Violetanai?

by Marilyn in

jw
friends

i haven't read all the responses from yesterday but i know many of you will have "made a good account of yourselves".

why can't we help her?

i know from the number of people that i converted that there is a turning point at which time you stop being receptive to outside advice and opinions.

bitter mango

Why can't we help her?

you can't help someone who doesn't want help. she claims she's content now, leave her be until she comes here needing support after being hurt and dissapointed that she didn't really find the truth.
