Australia is a country of massive extremes. Decade long droughts, snow in the middle of Summer ( Hobart), floods that defy imagination. Aus is the same size as mainland U.S. Early last year I flew across it, red desert for 5 hrs. Oct last year flew across and it was green for 5 hrs with huge temporary rivers. Rain forest in the north, windswept cliffs and bays to the south, hammered by Antarctic storms. Bushfires and cyclones are part of this country. As an old aboriginal man once said to me, "This country can kill you".

I can tell you the part about the bros being safe "at this point" in Grafton is a total beatup. I live close to this area and have lived in Grafton briefly. It floods most years there, so the locals are used to it and take the precautions that previous generations taught them. This last rain event was barely a blip on the radar in that area. It wasn't even classed as moderate flooding.

Your Opinion: Do You Believe In The Idea Of Having One Soulmate In Your Life?
by minimus ini know some couples that truly believe this.. what's your view?
do you believe there's a soulmate out there for you?.

I reckon it's all hormones. To separate us from animals, we created romance. That's not to say that the bonds of love can't form but...relationships are hard work requiring much compromise and energy.
All power to those who have found a compatible mate.

how important was the hope of the paradise to you? and what do you hope in now?
by Curtains inmany become and remain witnesses because of the hope of living in a paradise earth.
for those who have left how did you cope with the loss of this hope?
or do you still have this hope?.

Curtains, you spoke of hope after the belief in jw paradise. Hope of what? Life after death? My hope is to be satisfied (or have a modicum of)when I die. To be reassuring to my children and granchildren that I am OK on this lone journey. I am gone forever in this form and the future is the great question that humanity has struggled with for millenia.
Oh, I must say great comments from others so far...

To all you apostates out there - aka failed JW's
by donnye inby opening this post, you are admitting that you are failures - well done!
lol.
i must say, i have had so much fun on this site - some real laugh out loud moments for my friends and i to enjoy.. no need to respond - i am busy pioneering from tomorrow, so will no longer have time on my hands to sit at my pc enjoying laughing at your pathetic comments.

"No need to respond - I am busy pioneering from tomorrow, so will no longer have time on my hands to sit at my pc enjoying laughing at your pathetic comments. How sad you all are".
LOL! If you opened this, it shows you are not sure of the decision you made to be a pioneer. You need reassurance that you have the "truth" and by insulting those who don't follow your path you hope to feel superiour. But in reality you are searching for real truth, as it took great effort to log on here. You have just taken the first steps to unplug yourself from the machine. Too late for regrets, you've taken the RED PILL.

LOL again! You may understand why I rarely comment on this site and esp rarely expect a comment that shows any growth post jws (usually silence). Great to meet a fellow traveller into the journey of real enquiry. I hope my previous comment doesn't hurt the uninitiated (about getting to the doctor) It's just what is...

LOL at Liberty93
You have more patience than me. I will fess up and say I have seen and learned things without drugs or alcohol that defy logic.
I will voice what I "read" in that original post. Get your shoes on and get to the doctor FAST!
