I don't feel stuck in the past....I get frusterated by the results the past has brought into my "here and now". All and all I am happy with how things have turned out....but I do have times I wish I could have arrived here a bit differently.

If Only I'd Had...
by Blueblades inif only i'd had..., or if it wasn't for so and so, i'd be...i found myself thinking this many times since i did the fade.
then i realized from this forum and books that i have read, that it doesn't matter how true we believe these statements to be, we need to stop looking back, fiqure out the next step to go forward, and keep going.. we'll never change anything that has already happened, but the future is already ours to mold.. what do you think about this?
are you still stuck in the past?

My Back Has Gone Kaplunk
by Undecided inmy right leg has had a little pain for about a week, but yesterday it began to hurt so bad i could hardly stand it.
i stood up straight and bent back alittle and felt my back hurt, evidently the nerve is being pinched.
don't know whether to go to a doc or wait a while to see if it gets better.

Ken...It's those "golden globes" you've been carrying around all your life!! Just kidding!
I do have some advise for you for the cold coming around. Get some Emergen-C. It is sold at Wal-mart, wal-greens, CVS, health food stores....near other cold and flu products. It is a dose of vitamins that really seems to keep the illnesses away.
Maybe try a heat pad for your back....or a chiropractor?

Wouldn't the math always work that way? Next year...It will have been 1,975 years ago...add 33 years....and you get 2008.......I bet you already realised it, but I thought maybe I should point it out.

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.

Did anyone see True Life on MTV about interfaith relationships?
by megsmomma ini just watched it and there was a non baptised jw on there.
she had apparently left and married a luthern....but than felt that only jw's were the true religion and was seemingly torn between going back or not.
it is so sad and her husband realized she was being brainwashed, which she (of course) denied.

Death to Pixies... I never said he was the "good guy" here. He is actually the type that makes girls like that WANT to go back to the JW's. He has no clue HOW to help her, or what the bible teaches himself....but...He is smart enough to see that the JW's brainwash people.

First time for me.........."The wedding night"
