  Songs that make you cry...

  by El Kabong in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've been kind of sad the past few days for several reasons, but, there are certain songs that just cause the tears to flow whenever i hear them (and especially alone).

  only time by enya.

  i know that this song is often linked to the sept 11 attacks, but it really is just so hauntingly beautiful.

  Marillion - Heading for the great escape

  Heading for the great escape
  Heading for the rave
  Heading for the permanent holiday

  Heading for the winter trip
  Heading for the slide
  Heading for the dignified walk away

  Heading for the open road
  Goodbye to all that
  Heading for the automatic overload

  Standing in the open boat
  Standing in the swing
  Waiting for the ringing and the bright light

  Waiting to be recognised
  Quiet applause will do
  They shower you with flowers when they bury you

  You're holding on, you're holding on ...

  Just when I thought I'd seen the last of you
  You come here scratchin' at my door
  Your pain and anger's in the howling dark
  Of every corridor I walk

  So tell me more about the love that you rejected
  Tell me more about the trust you disrespected
  I still don't know, why did you hurt the very one
  Why did you hurt the very one
  That you should have protected?

  A question for all Whisky drinkers.

  by lfcviking in

  2. friends

  hello chumz on the board.

  nothing really to do with jwism but who prefers the american 'bourbon' type such as 'wild turkey', 'jim beam' etc or who prefers a fine single malt scotch such as 'glenfiddich' or 'glenmorangie'?

  i am not trying to stir up nationalism with this question but am just genuinely curious.. lfcv.

  I Know what I like, and I like what I know

  I am fading for the last 2 years. I learned that people outside the borg are just as good as inside. I have few friends both JG and non-JG. I have to say that my JG friends are also questioning the whole thing. ( So I don't know if I am bad company for them or if they are bad company for me ). Reading the comments on this forum, has helped me a lot.

  I have brains, why follow otherone's?

  Giving Up The Struggle

  by choosing life in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i recently realized that i don't know or need to know the answers to the big questions in life.

  the details no longer matter to me.

  i just kinda gave up on the struggle to be right or in the know.

  I Know what I like, and I like what I know

  Yep, I feel exactly the same. For the moment, I am rather confused about the big questions and answers. For sure, what they told me for 35 years in KH is not the answer. But who does have the answers? It´s all about believe. And I just want to enjoy the moment. Without feel guilty etc. I am fading out at the moment, I choose to do it that way. And it´s such a relief. No commitments, I am free! Finally!

  I am in the middle of this also. I moved to another district a few years ago and then stopped going to KH. Elders visited once and a while but I told them that I needed time ( after my wife left me for a JW ). I also think fading is better. I still have good contact with my family, I know this will be a lot harder after DF or DA, if not impossible. One thing I know for sure, the "truth" doesn't set mee free! So no way am I going back. I feel free now. And if I am being honest to myself, I have had this strange feeling about the "truth" ( how I hate that word! ) for 20 years! I just ignored my feelings about it. It feels better to know that there are ( a lot ) more suffering with all this.

  What Naughty Things Did You Know Of That Went On In Your Hall?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as an elder, i knew a lot of things that happened in the congregation, including "secret sins".

  what i also knew was that some persons were quite good at being sneaky----especially the teens.

  years after my daughter stopped hanging around certain friends and she was in her 20's, she told me little juicy tidbits of what some of her best friends regularly got away with.

  I Know what I like, and I like what I know

  When I was 16 years old and the wall between east and west germany was still there, brothers went to east germany to bring goods and bibles to the poor brothers and sisters. I once joined them and it was very dangerous etc. so therefor I liked it a lot. After all the booring stuff, this was exciting! I found out that 2 of the 3 brothers had a girl friend there! Everybody admired them for the good work they did, and they just couldn't stop to help the brothers in need at the other side of the iron curtain! These girlfriends were no JW's by the way.

  So long, and thanks for all the kids...

  by Paralipomenon in

  2. friends

  i recently remembered this jw rumor that went circulating around when i was younger.

  two sisters call on a door in service and is confronted by an obviously demon possessed individual.

  (the details always changed, floating lamps, speaking in tongues, the usual folklore) sensing a disturbance in the force the younger sister leaves but the older pioneer sister stays determined to give her witness.
