Interesting...I know I was at the lowest point of my life, on the verge of a mental breakdown when I started to study. And boy did the jdubs help me!!!!!
For the first time in my life, I suffered from panic attacks....in the hall...during meetings. Then I auctually went on anti-depressents given to me by a doctor who had been treating jdubs for years. When I decided to go off of them, my witness amigos advised against it, go figure. This coming from people who had been on them for over a decade, tried to kill themselves various times, etc etc...
I haven't been to a meeting in 4 years, but believed it was the truth for 3 of those and I haven't been better...what a difference it makes to...oh..I don't know...DEAL with your problems rather than waiting, waiting, waiting on someone else to solve them for you.

My favorite weather...what's yours? (Ozzie's gone fluffy!)
by ozziepost inyep, as i'm tapping away here i started to hear the gentle roar on the patio roof - it was a shower!
and the water's free!.
looking out the window i marvel at the richness of the green - the green leaves on the trees and bushes in the backyard, the green of the grass - and it's various shades too!

I love the rain, the smell, the touch, the sound...just about everything
UNLESS it happens to be raining on one of the days I've scheduled to plant flowers....then I get soaked and it makes a massive mess!!

Did you ever wonder...?
by Lady Lee inwhen i was a jw i remember that sometimes we would talk about the split after rutherford took over the wts.
i knew "some" people had left the wts over doctrinal issues.
of course we were never told what those doctrinal issues were... but i would occasionally wonder what happened to those who left.

Yes, I remember talking with the lady I studied with about Ray Franz and what happened during that time period. Looking back now, she didn't have a clue about what went down. She mainly just kept pointing out how "apostates" can creep into the TOP of the org. When I asked what happened, she really didn't know. When I asked what they are doing now, she said I should stop asking.
I ended up keeping my thoughts to myself afterwards. Eventually, I believed I shouldn't even conjure up the thought of apostates.

Sweden to be 100% oil free for energy production by 2020
by greendawn inthey have some politicians with good foresight in sweden and they are on course to becoming totally oil free in 15 years, even vehicles will not use gasoline, and given the tripling of oil prices in 10 years that is a wise decision, after all oil will run out sooner or later.
already only a third of its energy comes from oil.
if only more countries were as environmentally sensitive, instead of bush just saying that the usa is addicted to oil he should do something about it.

Good article...looks like a couple other countries are trying to use other sources of power too. I wish we could have some sort of timeline like that here in the u.s. We could sure use it!
