Wow. I can't believe that I'm gone for a few days and then come back to find our watering hole is going to be drained. I scanned back but didn't find out why? I will miss all of you, my new family. Here's to breaking the rules: [email protected]

You have all helped me soooooo much. Thank you. You are the truth.

Do You Feel Better Because You Post On EXJW Boards?

by minimus in

in reality, is it a good thing, in the long run?

should the purpose of a board to be to give the person needed help and then the person should just move on?.

does being on a discussion board like this mean that you aren't really getting on in your life?.

It wasn't so much of posting here but what I have read of other's sharing their experience. It has really helped me to see that much of my self interpreted "craziness" was and is very normal and I just feel a lot more content with life and much more self respect.

I don't check in as often as the beginning but each time I do I learn something new

Thank you all for your bravery, clairity and kindness.xoxoxo

You can't reason with a person who is mentally ill. It just doesn't work.

Do You Believe It's Possible We Might Be In "The Time Of The End"?

many religions other than jws believe we are at the "end times".

some individuals believe the earth will really be destroyed either by means of god or man in this century.. what's your take?.

so, i was sitting in the breakroom at work the other day, drinking a diet mountain dew.

on the side it said something about "win prizes, something else, and kicks!

" so, i mused to myself, what do they mean by "kicks?

I realized that I was listening to talk radio too much and didn't know new songs anymore. It's hard to get back on that boat.

No JW-info booth at the airport?

by Jim_TX in

yesterday, i had the opportunity to go to the airport and take my wifes' son - who had to fly back home - to the airport.. usually, i have a mixture of dread, and anticipation as i walk through the airport, as the jws have an airport-provided kiosk where only the elite jws are allowed to man (or woman), and hand out literature (you have to be on a list to do this - and usually only long-time pioneers get the opportunity).

the previous trip - when we picked him up, i seem to remember it was there, and i gave a big smile - and 'hello' to the individuals posted there with their litter-ature scattered about on the kiosk tabletop.. well... yesterday... i looked for the kiosk - thinking that i would like to say 'hello' again as we passed by.

no one is there, but the kiosk is sitting off to the side.

There used to be one in the Oakland CA airport. It was a bag fold up table usually with two sisters and a lot of literature laid out. Haven't seen it for a long time.
