when you compare the way you feel now as members of this forum with how you felt on your early days here what sort of thoughts and feelings come up?
what was your journey here like?
for me i have gone a long way, when i came here i loathed typing long posts, and hardly knew how to go about forums i was basically a forum virgin.
I was probably a little nervous about posting at first.................that no longer applies.
I think the forum shows that we are still a mixed bag of people, all at different stages in our development and that sometimes it is necessary to examine ourselves and what motivates us individually.
It can be fun and sometimes it can be a little boring!!!!!

is dfing someone religious persecution?.
i do not believe what the wts says, i do not want to belong to that org.
because of that, i no longer have contact with my family.
I think your answer lies in the term 'freedom of choice'.
Any given person, JW or not has the freedom of choice to associate with you. If they choose not to based on religious belief's they have the freedom of choice.
It is a little bit like joining the army and becoming a deserter..........you have the freedom to do that but you know there are consequences.
i have been lurking for quite some time now on jwd.
my story is pretty much just like everyone else's, "only the names have been changed".
in reading your posts, i have both laughed and cried till tears ran down my cheeks.
Just read through this whole thread..............I am awake due to toothache and I just want to say James, I am right with you. You have hit so many nails on the head!
Miss Ducket "I know your going to get pissy" actually we would say "You are pissed off" but I cant agree with you and maybe you should take some of James advice.
i love this quote and often find myself using it on the kids and my dog.
it is from cats and dogs and james earl jones doing the voice over.

Hubby has just corrected me. I have been living under an illusion about Cats and Dogs its is actually
"I think not, baby puppy. It is you who is in trouble!"
Talk about taking the wind out of my sails!!!!
Still prefer my version...............

Funny one from The Life of Brian
"He is not the Messiah, he is a very naughty boy, now piss off"

Dear Mouthy
Pushing wheelchair is not a problem for me, but it does involve a long flight, so would virtual pushing do? I am however going to find it difficult to be a grandson as when I last checked I had all the female bits lol..............yep I am in fact a grandaughter!
