  i just got word from my family that my grandmother died at 5am this morning.

  it was her wish to see me once more before she died, i have a flight to see her at 10am tomorrow morning.

  it was the only thing i could have hoped to do for her before she died, and it couldnt happen.

  Do J.W.'s still spank their kids in Kingdom Hall libraries to punish them?

  i've heard a lot on this subject, and was wondering if it's a common practice?.

  can you go to a meeting and almost always see some poor kid getting a walloping in the back room for talking or misbehaving at the meeting?

  or is this a thing of the past?.

  its a no win situation when you are a witness. If you take your child back to be disciplined, (I never disciplined too hard, although my exhusband did in my mind), people are upset. If you don't, people are upset.

  Children are naturally going to have problems sitting still that long young and being quiet. There is so much pressure on parents to make your children behave so that others wont' be distubed for the meetings

  ok its a "my hair is too long" issue again.

  i have the choice of attending all meetings until college if i just keep my hair combed and packed down so it looks short.

  my dad will pay all the bills i have and i can keep/save all the money i make until college.

  Can you afford not to be bribed?

  If you won the Lottery big time, would you be happier?

  how many of us imagine winning the big one, and all our problems in life would be solved.

  we could get whatever we wanted without worrying about money, could buy our way out of almost any situation (like the rich folks do), go on any vacation anywhere in the world, dress to the nines on a daily basis, and use our wealth to get others to do our bidding.. money = sex, power, influence, decadent luxury = happiness???.

  Worldly People

  i was sitting in my car in a parking lot and an old woman came out with a shopping cart with a few items in it.

  she was putting them in the back of a pickup truck and it was a little high for her to lift things over the side.

  she had a bag of dogfood or something like it and a young woman saw that it would be hard for her to lift it and she ran over and lifted it over for her and pattied her on the back and walked over to her car and left.

  Well I remember them telling us as witnesses we should do those things, but then they always wanted you to somehow make sure they understood because you were a Jehovahs Witness, that was why you were extending a hand. You were always supposed to some how "give a witness"

  i would have gotten baptised at the first "special assembly day" but i got sick just a few days before.

  so i got baptised at the d.c.that same year instead.

  i regret it, but at the time i thought i was doing the right thing, i sincerely believed i was dedicating my life to serving god.
