  My purpose in this life finally found it's meaning

  by sweetface2233 in

  well over 30 years ago on a lovely spring morning, my mother held me for the first time and looked onto my little pink face and said, my little baby is going to make a difference.

  i heard her recount this story over and over throughout my life.

  i never really understood what my purpose could be.

  My dear sweetface, congratulations!

  Ah... to find your purpose at such a young age, how I envy you. With my birthday fast approaching I can only hope that I find mine soon. Time is of the essence.

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  i live in an apartment complex, and our cable is through a satellite provider.

  if any of you are familar, one of the down side to satellite is that if the weather get very nasty, it can and will loose connection.

  a while back i was watching a movie on the sci-fi channel.

  I haven't been back to a meeting since I logged onto this site last May.

  The elders at my old congregation tried talking to me after my airing apostate views to my friend. There's never been a JC and I am now back in their territory. I guess I'm an inactive dub taht may or may not be an apostate.

  I figured the call would come when I celebrated Christmas even though I don't think they know where I am. I know some were asking my relatives if I was celebrating.

  I really don't care anymore.

  I love Westerns, old movies especially. After watching the mini- series "Lonesome Dove " years ago I decided to read it.

  Simply amazing book, beautifully written.

  this is my first post after many years of reading this site.

  i am from the west midlands, england.

  i was raised as a jw and got baptised aged 17, started "fading" whilst at university when i started to broaden my outlook and realised that all the so-called "worldly people" i had for so long been encouraged to avoid associating with were actually often open-minded, honest, generous and loyal people.

  Back to Zappa

  I'm The Slime

  I am gross and perverted
  Im obsessed n deranged
  I have existed for years
  But very little had changed
  I am the tool of the government
  And industry too
  For I am destined to rule
  And regulate you
  
  I may be vile and pernicious
  But you cant look away
  I make you think Im delicious
  With the stuff that I say
  I am the best you can get
  Have you guessed me yet?
  I am the slime oozin out
  From your tv set
  
  You will obey me while I lead you
  And eat the garbage that I feed you
  Until the day that we dont need you
  Dont got for help...no one will heed you
  Your mind is totally controlled
  It has been stuffed into my mold
  And you will do as you are told
  Until the rights to you are sold
  
  Thats right, folks..
  Dont touch that dial
  
  Well, I am the slime from your video
  Oozin along on your livinroom floor
  
  I am the slime from your video
  Cant stop the slime, people, look at me go
