Yikes! That's scary.... Glad you weren't more seriously injured!!!
Take it easy for a while, you'll most likely be sore for a long time. Give your body time to heal.
I'm glad you're doing ok, though!

Oh..... My.... God....... This could be my mother.
Abusive, only more emotional than physical.... Looks amazing for her age.... Intelligent, charming, charismatic.... Physically beautiful.... And she has alienated every person in her family. Two different husbands, four children, her mother, her father. She is the Model JW... Super Holy... and she has spent her life slandering her children all over town. Even when I was a pioneer; when I was happily married; when I was a model JW myself - even then, she could not say enough bad about me. Then she'd smile to my face and act like she was so happy to see me.
I finally stopped caring what she said. If people want to believe her, I don't care anymore. The people who tend to believe her lies are usually very gullible, or very petty. When she started slandering my kids, too, I cut her out of my life. I want nothing more to do with her.

OMG My very first video
by Lady Lee insometimes you really are in the right place at the right time.. i went for a roll along the bike paths.
i crossed the ottawa river and followed the bike path.
one of the things i missed the most about moving to manitoba was the changing of the leaves.

Severance Pay ($10,000 for each year)for Those Laid Off From Bethel?
by frankiespeakin ini think to be fair the gb should use the money they have collected from selling off thier property in brooklyn and offer a serverance package for those asked to leave after many years of service, $10,000 for every year of service would be good.
i've cut and pasted this from a legal site:.

I personally know a man who left Bethel after 42 years of service. He left as a JW in good standing. He received nothing when he left. He worked doing manual labor until he died at age 70.

A confession of Love, of finding Home
by daystar ingrowing up, i had, like we all do, archtypes regarding the way relationships are supposed to work, what a marriage is supposed to look like, and we use these archtypes as guides to our behavior, the sort of people who we find attractive, etc.. according to jung, there are also "built-in" archtypes that arise from the collective unconscious.
he found that men and women have in their psyches archtypes of the opposite sex, anima and animus.. the anima is the personification of all feminine psychological tendencies within a man, the archetypal feminine symbolism within a man's unconscious.

I guess I finally have seen the light thanks to yall
by hambeak inwhen i found this forum i was skeptical, even a few of my topics may have been a bit biting, but i have learned a lot.
after 33 years in the org.
and swallowing everything hook line and sinker for absolute gospel and feeling dirty over nothing wrong.

Isn't a great feeling to know Armageddon isn't coming 'any day now' and you can actually use your own brain to figure things out??!!
Congratulations!

We lost a family member today...
by morty inwhat a sad day for our family today.. also, i would like to mention that the men that killed him, did have the guts to come and tell us.
( at 6:00am this morning) a lot of people wouldn?t do that so, this is one thing i thanked him for.
he did feel awful and had more tears then i did when i picked him up and wrapped him in his bedding.. any ways............................ i called the vet to find out how much it would be for a cremation and they want $160.00 bucks!!
