Hey JV, that is p*ss funny...you realise though that the key mistake you made was going to the meeting in the first place! I guess all these things are good affirmation for you...funny thing is that it's not like the attitude of the people who diligently attend at the hall has changed, it's your attitude which has shifted and the reason why their presence is so unbearably painful! The ignorance is astonishing aint it??! frog

54So I'm at the meeting tonight.............
by JV ini'm looking through the new awake magazine (great article on shoplifiting by the way) and this older sister comes and sits beside me.
she started talking to me about this great little piece in the magazine about fish or something that should be on my dinner plate, something that i don't really care about, then she turns to me and said and i quote " where else but jehovah's organization can we learn such things?
i sat there with a dumbfounded look on my face thinking " are you kidding me?

flipping off the Kingdom Hall everytime I drive by.
...what exactly does that mean Dustin? I thought perhaps you meant doing burnouts on the front lawn of the KH, or perhaps getting all dressed up to go, but once you got there the idea of going in was so unbearable that you "flipped" it off and headed off to Mackers instead?!

What would be on your 1.00 per day menu, and could you do it?
by SixofNine in.
imagine that you're givin the opportunity to win a substantial prize (say, 5000 dollars and a make-out session with angelina jolie or sam shepherd) if you can a) live for 60 days on one dollar per day, and b) retain your health better than other contestants.. ah, screw that, that's silly.
what would be your menu if you had to live on one dollar per day, and you could not accept free food?

I was thinking about this sort of thing recently, thinking about socioeconomic binds that people find themselves in. Say you had $7 given to you on the same day every week, well you could buy a bag of rice, a few tins of vegies, a loaf of bread, some blemished fruit perhaps and survive quite okay. But if you're earning your living day by day to the equivalent of $1p/d in a place where that won't buy much, how will you ever get ahead? You'd basically be forced to buy a small amount of rice per day, or some sort of carbohydrate that will fill you up for one main meal. I guess the first couple of weeks would take initial sacrifice so that you could put some monies away to make bigger investments. I think I'm going to test this theory out, which shouldn't be too difficult to do on a students budget lol! Think about the best way in which I can utilise a $7p/w shopping budget...very interesting stuff:-)

Let's see, parents got dunked when I was about 2y/o, but were associated since before I was conceived...I left the org first time when I was 17.5y/o for 1 year then went back, left next when I was 22.5y/o, but went back at 23 on-again-off-again for 6months. So that would = 9months for gestation, +17.5years+4years+6months=21years & 9months too many!! frog

HI Susu, Its so nice to have you hear, although its sad that it has to be under such circumstances. Most of us have been where you are, and we can all relate to the same mixed feelings and confusion that you must be going through. Don't ever feel guilty for posting here, you're not an apostate for posting here, none of us are. Take what you need from here to heal yourself. It's such a tough road to walk, but with time, and it does take some time you will start to feel more like yourself than you ever did. I wish we could help speed up the process for you, but be patient and you will build for yourself a new life, a better life if you decide in time that's what you want.
Take good care of yourself, and don't let people who don't really have your interests at heart make you loose too much sleep. There are really good caring and loving people in the world, if you open yourself up to it you will start to meet some and they will become your best friends and support.
Feel free to message me anytime. Take care, luv from Frog

Dad (elder) called yesterday.
by Es inhi all.... i have not spoken nor seen my dad for about 3months now after he would not allow me to borrow cds for my up and coming wedding to a "worldy guy" because borrowing his cds means he would be supporting my mariage.
even tho the relationship between my mum and i is now strained as a result she still keeps in contact and suggested that we all meet at the shops one day for lunch so dad could see my son.
i agreed as i felt it would be nice for my son to see his pop again...but also was a little upset as dad hasnt gone out of his way to see my son.

Hi Es, you poor babe... my honest opinion is that he's got too much control of this situation. You need to lay on the line that you will not accept that he can give and take you as he pleases, you deserve better, and he should contact you again when he can accept that. Otherwise he will just succeed in making you feel like rubbish evertime he has a need to make contact. I do feel for him though, how terrible it was to live in the mindset that he has, where your loyalties are tested and the fear rises in you when you feel you've crossed the moral threshold. Sounds like you have a wonderful new life, you should concentrate on the people who treat you the way you deserve to be treated, loved and cherished. Take care of yourself, and don't let him get to you babe. froglett
