THEY act like the ones who are hurt??!!
by stuckinarut2 init really amazes me when jws act like we are hurting them!.
many of us have found that if we stop associating with them for valid reasons, they act all upset and hurt that we would be "so cruel as to limit our association or cut them off".
i know of friends here on the forum who have been told by parents that they "will shun them if they leave jehovah" , and yet when the shoe is on the other foot and our awake friends shun them first, the parents cry and bemoan the situation and say how "cruel it is to deprive them of their company".

Apart from the special circumstances involving those of us who've abandoned our religion, I have talked to many older people (non-JW) whose adult children have cut them off.
Being angry with one's parents -- whatever the reason -- appears quite common. The result is estrangement that goes on indefinitely. Of course, there are parents who don't talk to their children because they disapprove of choices made by their offspring.

Action Music (in movies) in the past VS the present
by TerryWalstrom inunderstanding action musicin the past vs the present______.
in the golden and silver ages of hollywood, composers with classical, romantic era training created action music out of thematic (tuneful) motifs.
these catchy 'tunes' were used as 'bricks' whilst the orchestral techniques of arranging and orchestration were the 'mortar' binding and building the overall structure towering above mere image+sound effects.the result gave an audience something i will call "an intellectual access" to onscreen "meaning" in the story.what's that?a "tune" is an organizing principle.a tune has a beginning, middle, and end.a tune "tells" us something.what remains is "the way it is spoken.

A different kind of action in this psychological thriller, aka fantasy-horror film:
BLACK NARCISSUS, with Deborah Carr and Kathleen Byron.
The mad scene, at film's end, had been fitted to the earlier-composed, shadowy music, which swells with blood-curdling, operatic intensity toward the climax. The clips on Youtube of one of filmdom's scariest scenes, has had, sad to say, its lush and evocative original score replaced with today's pop music. Why can't excellence be left alone? You simply must rent and view the movie. A devout nun and a deranged psychopath: two sides of the same coin.
Horror, psychodrama, and windiness all peak during the meticulously engineered ‘composed film’ sequence that punctuates Black Narcissus (1:31:50-1:35:35). The stalking begins most explicitly with a shock cut (another popular horror convention) to an extreme closeup of Sister Ruth’s abject eyes (1:32:01) that interrupts a serene but brooding Gothic segment where Sister Clodagh’s silhouette gazes out to the mountainside at dawn, her ‘peripatetic’ lantern placed by her feet. (1:30:55-1:32:00). The tension stirred by the thick shadows, slow-moving camera, howling wind, and lilting harp makes this shock cut all the more eerie and compelling. Following this startling cinematic gesture, the floodgates are opened for what is arguably the film’s ‘crowning jewel’, where “Sister Ruth’s climactic stalking features the subjective camera’s restlessly prowling and startling close-ups of red-rimmed eyes, recognizable aesthetic strategies of the horror movie” (189) and more specifically, the ‘slasher’ subgenre that would develop decades later.

They are our family and everybody here is correct, in many ways they make BETTER companions than humans. Very kind and loving. -- Mr. Flipper
I appreciate what you've shared, Mr. Flipper. What I'm still trying to figure out, however, is some rescue dogs I care for. After three years of care, I still cannot touch "Lady." But she's that way with almost everyone except her owners.

Despite his own discomfort, his main focus was on greeting me and letting me know he loves me. I knew that in his heart he was on his hind legs leaping and spinning with excitement like the puppy he once was. If that's not loyalty and unconditional love, I don't know what is. -- Pete Zahut
I cup my hand round her tiny calico face and compress her from ears to end down the length of her slender body. Repeat. And repeat. If l stop she will nip my thumb again. A sweet little tyrant. But l am hers now. -- humbled
I vowed I would never put myself through this emotional trauma ever again my body wouldnt be able to take it. -- smiddy

Thanks for your fine comments. Words to remember.
I'll be caring for a "comfort" dog for an entire week, and, true to the name, he does provide comfort. He helps to destress me because I allow him to by concentrating on him and his needs.
