  Who are you looking for?

  2. friends

  do you find yourself scanning the posts of new ones here hoping in the back of your mind that it's a friend or relative who has finally "seen the light"?.

  there are several people i am always watching for.... my best friend from high school, the only friend i was allowed to have since she was the only girl my age in the kh.

  and my brothers... extremely bright and intelligent guys, but very wrapped up in gaining my fathers and the congregations approval.

  i can't sleep, i'm usually up until 2 (or later) every night.......then the alarm goes off at 6:30 and i'm up to start my day.

  i find that i'm more alert and productive in the night time, however i am sooo tired of not being able to sleep.

  so how about you, night owl or early bird?

  On line versus real life communities

  by greendawn in

  2. friends

  do you think an on line community like this has the same value as a real life community or does it fall short of it?

  does it give a strong enough sense of belonging for example or a sense of interacting with others instead of being isolated?

  I think the anomynity of being online allows ppl to be more open for one. It is easier to throw stuff out there without the instantaneous feedback that personal exposure brings. Therefore, ppl tend to be more risk oriented with their personal stuff.
  In contrast, it's harder to know exactly what someone means by words alone. What it may mean to me may not be what's perceived. No doubt.
  There is no substitute for being there tho,...

  ever had a misconception about someone on the forum and then had the opportunity to "talk" with them either on chat or telephone and formed a completly different opinion??

  sometimes electronically it's so easy to form an opinion about someone or even listen to hearsay.

  i'm guilty of that too.

  if some rich relative died and left you a fortune, what would you do with your life and why?

  Sweet
  I loved Dune and read the series voraciously back in the day, when i lived in Banff as i recall. God Emperor of Dune was a "thick" read but opened my mind to some rather abstract philisophical ideas. The Litany against Fear was and is inspirational to me still. Whenever there's a dark corner in the temple of my being, it helps me grab the flashlight and find out what exactly is hiding there, lest it fester and spread. Bring it on. The hardest part is finding the flashlight,.....

  ok, here's the challenge: how do you tell your witness "friends" and relatives that you don't think it's the "truth" - without them labeling .

  you as an apostate and fleeing in terror?

  i'm tired of questions behind my back like "doesn't he go to meetings?
