  the thread about got me thinking about my very early childhood, back when witnesses were allowed to be social and have get togethers.

  they also had a piano in every congregation i ever attended, and an older sister would always play the kingdom melody.

  there was actual singing - not mindless droning and humming.

  does anyone else find themselves embarrassed about their jw past?

  i find that when people that know what i used to be ask me about it i am completely embarrassed by how foolish their beliefs sound especially things like the blood issue.

  i can't stand when someone will say "why did you believe such and such....?

  2. friends

  in his book " the zen teachings of jesus",michael leong presents a very different way of understanding some of the things jesus taught--thru the eyes of eastern thought.. here's a couple of examples.

  (he first explains that we should try to view jesus as a poet teaching us how to live beautifully.).

  when jesus is questioned as to the greatest commandment and his reply "you must love god with your whole heart, mind and strength.

  mango, at the peak of ripeness, kept cool in the shade, then you have an unbelievably delicious experience waiting for you.

  peel it and eat it with your hands, outside or standing over the sink.

  close your eyes.

  Transit officials describe signs to look for in terrorists-Gotta see this

  by ohiocowboy in

  1. social

  read the highlighted part below, and you will see who officials are saying are possible terrorists....having been on public transportation, to me it would descibe 75% of people riding, especially now in 90 plus degree heat.

  could statements such as the one below cause someone to get attacked, or worse, who happens to be sweating more than others, or is wearing too much cologne?

  could such generic statements cause mass hysteria, something that officials want to avoid?
