I suppose I should stop lurking,
by SacrificialLoon inand introduce myself.
i was raised in "the truth", and for the longest time it was all i knew.
i spent my childhood going through all the things that other witness children went through; not celebrating holidays, not standing up and reciting the pledge of allegiance, not going to school events, or associating with "worldly" children much.

My old KH had a personal visit from me today!
by moshe ini was on business in the area of my old congregation ( i live out of state)- the one i first got baptized in back in 1973. they were just getting started on their discussion before service- it was 9:03 am and i just impulsively turned into the parking lot and decided to pay them a surprise visit.
i just walked into the kh and looked at them for 30 seconds.
i didn't recognize anyone and finally they asked me what i wanted.

The 'Faithful and Discreet Slave'.
Without them we wouldn't have the blood issue, the disfellowshippihg, the two bogus wittnesses to abuse, unloving and power hungry men 'in charge', the constant fear of dying at Jehovah's hand, fear of our own unbelieving families and other innocent 'wordly association'...we wouldn't have a BIG FAT LIE.

Did you say "I love you?"
by serendipity ini grew up in an emotionally constipated family.
my parents didn't hug us or tell us they loved us.
they were slightly affectionate with each other, but i don't think i ever heard them express their love for each other, in front of us kids.

I really don't remember if 'I love u' was a big part of my family. We were all an affectionate hugging kissing bunch, that got my sisters and I in a whole lotta hell later in the cong. My family life was so up and down-dad was an abusive Jeckel and Hyde. So any affectionate 'I love u's were taken as hush money. I am very affectionate still and tell everyone I love them, and my kids do too.

Anyone have ever seen a ghost (spirit)?
by Nicolas inwhen i was going at the kingdom hall with my father (i was very young), it happened from time to time that the subject of spirits entered in the conversation.
then at this point, it seemed that everyone had their own little story to tell about the spirits of the devils.. .
personnally, i'm always skeptic about these things and i won't believe it until i see it.

I used to see small floating faeryish lights when I was a kid. They were very comforting and made me feel safe. I have a crazy demon story from when I was 3-in an old farmhouse. (That's a good one-my mom prayed all night for Jehovah to save us) and then various peaceful/playful experiences that still freaked me out a bit at the time.

What did you think of the CO's bi-annual visit?
by JH indid you think it was a "show", when just about everyone showed up at the kingdom hall when he showed up that week?.
did you go out in the service that week more than usual, just to do like the others who were giving a show?.
the moment the co's week was over, the attendance always came back down to normal..

My family lived next door to the kingdum hall from the time I was 13 to 17(when I moved out)...Certain COs were really cool. They had a trailer they parked in the parking lot and were a lot of fun. We got to be pretty close because we were neighbors for a week. I remember two that I really loved and respected. One couple became really good friends with my parents, even went on vacation together to Hawaii. Others were in your face arrogant ass clowns. I always thought it was funny how everyone made a special point to go out in service that week and fought over whose car the CO or his wifey were going to be placed in. The brothers tried to show off their non existant skills and the sisters fretted over lunch/dinner plans and what they were going to wear.
