  I need help to clear my mind...

  2. friends

  i'd like to hear your thoughts on the following.. the thought of da'ing pops up in my mind every now and again.

  at the moment i don't associate with any witnesses.

  i do walk into them occassionally, but most of them (from different congregations) don't seem to be aware of the fact that i haven't been attending meetings for over a year now.

  Cancer has taken way to many people out of my life, how about yours?

  recently a female friend of mine was diagnosed with ovarian cancer.

  she is 22, and has a long fight ahead of her.

  in my 35 years of this life, if there was a year book that showed all the friends and family members that i have known, far to many would have a note saying "died from cancer, on such and such date.

  Without failing, no living / learning

  by digglina in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i came to think of the fact that i've always been afraight to fail and this made living freely very difficult.

  since i stopped going to meetings and especially since i admitted to myself that i'm no longer a 'true believer' i feel i can make mistakes and learn from them.

  i feel more 'alive' because of that.

  My mother started preaching on me today...

  by digglina in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  my mother has just been preaching to me for over an hour (the usual circular reasonging: i have the truth - if i have the truth they will oppose me - they oppose me - so i have the truth...).

  the one point she seems to have is the thought that god has a people to serve him.

  the bible does speek of him using individuals, but most of the time he also has a special people.

  digging in old books

  by digglina in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i'm new on this board and currently an inactive jw.

  although lurking for several months i only just registered.

  i was wondering if any of you took the trouble of going through old books of the wtbts and if it made you come to any conclusions.
