fastfoward 20/20 were do you see the wts?
by karter ini'm sure it will be around but how big i don't know.. as the older ones die off or become inactive there doesn't seem to be as many stepping up to take there place as one elder said to me recently " iv'e just come from a meeting at bethal they talked a lot about how much of this generation we have lost it seems we have skipped a generation ".. after alot of growth in the 80's and early 90's things seemed to have tailed off in the western world .. in 1992 i helped build the kh i used to go to it was built to hold 250 it was about 3/4 full and growing now it has about 100 publishers they had 9 reg pioneers then now maybe 1 or 2 the enthusiasm seems to have faded at best.. i went to the talk with my wife the other week (she still active) alot asleep or staring into space when i left after the talk the was alot of people milling around and talking in the lobby.. what will happen in the future i don't know it's co's vist this week everyone will get reved up but it seems to faid just as quick.. your thoughts??

about time i formally introduced myself
by karter ini was a j.w for 38 years did'nt do a fade just "checked out and left" that was 7 years ago .. wife still a j.w so still have the elders ask why?.
i started to explain to one he went into lock down mode so why bother.. i'll defend the j.ws to the end for things i fell are right but wont stand idly by and say nothing when i know what they are saying is wrong.. that's got me into a lot of trouble.. karter.

was there a matchmaker in your congo?
by karter inwe had one in a neighbouring congo.. she would invite all the young ones out to ride her horses .. she invited me over and told me there will be this gorges sister there ,all week i'm looking forward to this till i got there....... lets just say she was a nutritional overachiever with highly questionable mental health the horses face and hers had more than a little in common.. not to be out done she invited me and my mate a wile later on the same pretext this time there was a gorges sister there i fell for her straight .
away sad to say she didnt like me she fell for my mate .. lifes a bitch sometimes.

freinds
by karter inhi all, been lerking for a few years now was a j.w for 38 years.. for reasons i may explain later i "burnt out and faded away" "checked out and left" " no regrets(they don't work).. ive read alot of stories and can relate to what your saying but was there anything positive you took away from being a j.w??.
for me it was the ability to communicate i'm in business when i go to quote a job i'm at ease explaining things and getting my point across.. what about you ??.
