  MY BEST FRIEND

  by compound complex in

  he walked right past me, looking straight ahead.. years before, hal and i walked the same path, the best of pals.

  laughing and joking while endeavoring to maintain some level of decorum during our serious work of being a theatrical spectacle to men and angels.

  although we hadn't seen each other in years, hal must have gotten word .

  Ok Coco, you have me in tears.

  Recent occurrences have left me sad, annoyed, frustrated, angry... I wish sometimes I could be more unfeeling like these JW's I know. But that's wrong...having feelings is what led me out of that cult, thankfully.

  I watched about half of it yesterday while here at work. I am amazed at how many boxes this guy checked in my head, the familiar scriptures used in his rhetoric. So so familiar.

  I remember street witnessing. Approaching people as we walked down the street as well as people waiting in cars. None of this namby pamby sitting on a bench outside Starbucks holding a set of mags. No sireee!

  I guess I can't blame them for trying to get their time in. It's just the arrogance and superior attitude that they are better/more spiritual than virtually everybody else that gets me!!

  Oh dear.

  They think they are soooo important with such an important message! Quite a comfy arrangement...lawn chair, under a tree, very little foot traffic, no trolley to be responsible for.

  They are prob aux pioneers trying to make their time.

  Really good commentary.

  This is a big issue with me. I remember so well excelling in various things in school only to go so far, then my parents yank me out of it. It's incredibly debilitated, the effects I still deal with today.

  In the JW video, a child LOVES playing his violin and he is "good at it." It is such a gift to person to be able to find out their talent at a young age.

  I shared on here several times that I have a young nephew that is a natural ball player. He lives and breathes baseball. He is really good and is currently in a club that is touring for the summer. He is a good, sweet guy...not great with math...lol. I cannot imagine what would happen to him if he had been born into the JW faith. He would be lost if he was unable to do what he LOVED to do, just like the kid in the video will be. Because that is their DNA...it's who they are.

  I hate this GD religion. Get out of it! If not for yourselves, do it for your kids!
