Do you have any kind of obsession?
by JH ini'm obsessed with new cars.
i'd trade a $50,000 car for a brand new $40,000 one the year after, and trade it again for a $30,000 brand new one the year later, and trade it again for a $20,000 one year after that.
as long as i get a new one every year or so, i love the feeling, even if it's less equipped.

I am obsessed with endings. I need to know how everything will end...movies, books, problems. I often read the ending of a novel before I read it from the first. I made my husband tell me the ending for Lord of the Rings before I would go to the movie with him. I hate surprises of any kind. I also like to finish everything,,,the cereal, the wine, the chocolate, the rum,.......

For the Christians on this board
by Honesty in.
is jesus real to you?.
the reason i ask is because a few weeks ago i was talking with two young men about him and one of them turned to the other (his cousin) and said, "i know jesus is real.

Yes, I believe Jesus is real. He and His Father have been there for me always.

This is such a difficult time for you to go through. You can be an example to THEM with you unconditional love. When they are at their meetings you can tell and show your mom your love for her. Your daughter will lighten the load for you too. Children are so sweet(most of the time). Just treat them kindly and "heap firey coals on their heads" as the Bible says.. I am sure your loving personality will shine through and you can make peace with your mom. I wish my mom was still here. Keeping you and your mom in my prayers.

So I Finally Dissassociated Myself...
by arecibo inhi guys, .
just want to say how great it is to be able to talk to people in the same situation.
sometimes it feels like there's no-one who can really understand what it's like being brought up in the jws.

Welcome to the "we're out" club. You and I will have to get together each June to celebrate. I just sent my disassociation letters out last Thursday. It is a big step to take to make that last step out and I am sure we will shake that tar off in time. Congratulations on your courage...Arwen
