  my sister said yesterday:.

  "isn't it amazing how the watchtower and awake are so good that really we would only have to read them to know everything that's going on in the world!".

  And she knows that what she read is "everything that's going on in the world" because they told her it is.

  this fabulous 42 yr old, fun, smart, dear wife and mother of 2 teenage boys.

  she was incredibly close to her older sister, they were best friends, and naturally the whole large family is devastated.

  even her sons' basketball coach stood up to speak of her and sobbed uncontrollably about how dear a person she was, especially dying so young.

She was incredibly close to her older sister, they were best friends, and naturally the whole large family is devastated. Even her sons' basketball coach stood up to speak of her and sobbed uncontrollably about how dear a person she was, especially dying so young.

  So I've been extra angry at my family, at all our JW families. They think they'll live forever and that how they treat us today doesn't matter, that the years they've spent shunning some here don't matter. They don't know what love is, Forrest Gump knew what love is, but JWs do not. This gal and her husband and 2 boys had their last picture together taken several weeks ago, knowing it would be their last all together and a large print was displayed at the service and used on the memorial 'flyer', it is an incredibly beautiful and haunting pic, they're looking at her so lovingly and as if they're saying 'so long'.

  What I'm getting at is: We matter to one another though. I'm grateful for this site and for the people (real or imagined) here. Love the one you're with, that's all, because who knows what tomorrow may bring! My husband just said to me that our real friends and loved ones want our happiness, they are the ones that matter most.

  Be still my heart, is that an EV1? We had one at the Saturn/EV1 dealer I worked at in Phx. The new 08 Hybrid Tahoe will amaze, same economy as a Camry!!

  I sell Chevrolets; this will be a very neat rig.

  Shunning a Jehovah's Witness - They don't like it!

  an elder who lives nearby has decided to be play the twat with me recently.

  i have been out for nearly 2 years, which makes it even more pathetic on his part.. after leaving, this character (thinking i was depressed), would give me the most tactless, thoughless advice that you have ever heard.

  he loved 'giving it to me' right outside my house.

  I think it's a good move. Afterall, 'bad associations spoil useful habits' and You are a useful habit! my mother used to say.

  Many quotables in this thread:

  tree of woe

  he deserves a little time roasting on the spit of disdain

  just got off phone with newly appointed elder friend.

  at the end of the conversation, he says, "you know dagney, we need to have the conversation...the one about meetings...i want to see you in the new system....i think about you every day, everyday!!".

  i was all cheerful "sure!!!

  Sorry friend. I get a little shaky when friends talk down to me too, 'you're not quite right with me until you sit in this one building for 4 hours per week' just hurts.

  Damn. I'm sorry you weren't able to be there, but as kind as she was, I'm sure there was someone there for her who loved her, remember that. As warmly as you remember her, I'm certain that she thought of you the same.

  So sorry for your loss on so many levels. The JWs suck so badly. They fulfill the 'end times' description of people 'having no natural affection'.

  The Depths They Will Sink To.....

  2. experiences

  having almost gotten over my jw ex-best friend telling me she could no longer be my friend, handing me back my spare keys, sending a note and present to my kids with not even a 'dear sam', shunning me in the park, etc, etc she now sacks her immigrant cleaner (who became her cleaner due to my recommendation a year ago) by text message.

  cleaner phones her to check out what's going on and she tells her you can no longer clean for us as you work for sam and my husband wants us to have no connection whatever - you may tell her things about us and we don't want that.

  charming, another kick in the stomach for me and a great witness to the cleaner (who ironically we found out a few months ago has a father who is a witness!).

  then how come the adventists have 15 million members and jw's only 6.7, when they originated at around the same time?

  Because the Adventists let anyone in. The JWs are more selective, you know, no gays or edumacated peoplesses in there.
