  my daughter has been 'going out' with a black gentleman for the last year.

  they are very much in love by the looks of things and have long term plans.. however, opposition has recently come from somewhere i did not expect.

  it turns out that he has been very upset with his mother since she made several unpleasant remarks to him.

  False assumptions and the lack of trust. It was as though they believed that everyone was chomping at the bit hoping to get away with something they shouldn't do and if it weren't for the tight reigns, all hell would break loose.

  What about the people who actually wanted to try and do God's will without being falsed into it by rules and laws?

  What's the most unexpected comments your JW companion said in the FS?

  i remember once, we were in the field service, and my companion was talking to the householder.

  the householder said, "we don't go to church anymore", thinking this would deceive us....lol.

  so, my jw friend told him, hey that's great !!!

  I was on fs with an older lady. I really respected her and thought she was very intelligent until one day when no one was answering the doors. She turned round and said, 'well they are obviously needing to work to pay for their mortgages', it was said in a condescening way as though these people were doing a bad thing.

  I wish I had the guts to say 'yes and they are paying for your home too' (she lived in council accommodation).

  I was well gobsmacked.

  If you DA yourself are you giving in to the GB?

  by bronzefist in

  2. friends

  i'm not criticizing anyone's decision to da themselves...just wondering what the advantages are.. if the whole da thing is something made up by the gb why make them happy by playing by their rules?

  how are they hurt by your decision?

  why not just walk away?

  I didn't want to play by their rules either but I was getting harrassed with inane text messages and emails. They would never call the house phone in case my husband answered.

  I got a new mobile and blocked their emails. Next came a letter through the door. It was from an elderly lady in my congregation, I didn't know her to speak to. She was famous for being the sister who gets beaten up by her u\b husband but still makes all the meetings and fs.

  She told me that when receiving opposition from family members that I should trust in Jehovah and continue to attend meetings. I was furious. How dare they go to all that trouble and they weren't even correct. How dare they assume it was my husband's opposition that stopped me from going.

  I was so angry, I wanted to write back and tell her what I thought but she hadn't left an address or any contact details. I thought that was so rude, especially being as I don't know how she got my address. All she said was she'll talk to me at the meetings!

  I imagined them all milling around each other at the meetings, planning and handing out my details, gossiping about what they they think the reasons are, jumping to the wrong conclusions.

  So thats why I da'd so they would just leave me alone. Sorry for ranting :)

  Good news for chocolate lovers

  by fullofdoubtnow in

  i just read this and, being a chocolate lover myself, thought i'd share it.

  viagra works, but chocolate works better tuesday september 12, 02:18 pm.

  click to enlarge photolagos (afp) - viagra may heat up one's sex drive, but chocolate can make it sizzle.so said dr. dora akunyili, the director of nigeria's federal agency for food and medicine, in advising nigerians on monday to forego the little, libido-boosting blue pills in favor of a measured dose of cocoa.. to back up her claims -- made during a meeting with the vice-governor of one of nigeria's states -- the good doctor cited a recently published study extolling the libidinal qualities of cocoa beans.. the report, produced by nigeria's national committee for the development of cocoa, may be a bit skimpy on double-blind scientific tests, but it does refer to the marketing campaign of a british trade association making similar claims.. baptized "feeding your imagination", the campaign will soon launch a product line of six energy chocolate bars containing essential oils said to enhance one's mood, and especially one's sexual appetite.. costing about six us dollars (5 euros) per 100 grams, the bars are fetchingly named sexy, beautiful, dreamy, fantastic, sensual and lovely, according to the website foodnavigator.com.. britons already lead the european union in chocolate consumption, eating nearly 10 kilos on average per year, and britian is thus considered a promising market for sex candy.. for akunyili, chocolate is the obvious lover's choice.
