  Watchtower is kicking people out again, in the name of LOVE?

  by Bethelite Elder in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  right now at bethel, they are laying off and reassigning again.

  if you have cancer or some other illness, you are a liability and it's time to pack.

  i remember the night when we had the special talk about there being a great need in the field and some would be sent out.

  Right now I am seeing many Bethelites depressed, paranoid, distressed, and uncertain about their future. When I first

  went to Bethel, I really did think that everything was legit.

  That is really sad what they are facing and no doubt they feel betrayed.

  Can anyone interpret dreams?

  by FiveShadows in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i had this dream but it's taking me some time to understand it.

  quite frankly, it's bothering me bcause it just feels like it has some sort of meaning.. .

  Dreaming that you are hiding, suggests that you are keeping some secret or withholding some information. You may not be facing up to a situation or not want to deal with an issue. However, you may be getting ready to reveal and confess before somebody finds out.

  The house in your dream, represents your own soul and self. Specific rooms in the house indicate a specific aspect of your psyche. Which room were you in?

  Being retangular represents the number four which represents...4.

  Four denotes stability, physical limitations, hard labor and earthly things, as in the four corners of the earth. It also stands for materialistic matters. You get things done.

  To see an old man in your dream, represents wisdom or forgiveness. The old man may be a archetypal figure who is offering guidance to some daily problem.

  Wielding a sword, represents your ambition, competitive nature decisiveness and will power. You seek to hold a position of prestige, authority, and distinction. Alternatively, the sword can be seen as a phallic symbol and thus represent masculine power.

  A black horse represents death but A pale or white horse in your dream, symbolizes strength, power, endurance, virility and sexual prowess. It also represents a strong, physical energy. You need to tame the wild forces. The dream may imply that you have been horsing around. Alternatively, the dream can indicate thoughts of being arrogant and "get off your high horse".

  If the horse is white, then it signifies purity, prosperity and good fortunes. To dream that you are being chased by a white horse, may be a pun on chaste. Perhaps you are having difficulties dealing with issues of intimacy and sexuality.

  To hear your name being called, indicates that you are in touch and in tune with your spirituality. It also makes you aware of your own uniqueness and highlights your individuality but in this case it was not your real name. But an Evergreen as in tree

  represents the cycle of life and may be trying to offer you hope in the midst of despair which could have meaning as it seems to fit the rest of the descriptions....

  Dreams are a part of your subconscious trying to tell us things. Only you will know the true meaning. These are some idea's to ponder..

  Oral sex and pedophiles

  by verystupid77 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have a question.

  why dose it take two witnesses if a child says someone molested them.. but with oral sex it only takes the one spouse to get the other mate in trouble.

  why the difference.

  Just think how the child would be so traumatized now, then take them to the elders in front of the culprit. the two witness should have no bearing in this area...

  It makes me boil, a child would be in worse fear to speak freely....going straight to the police is the best

  thing that could be done. They will leave no stone unturned...

  I have read the book and for many women they live to fit an image. Women are in auto pilot, they keep busy as possible, succeeding, socializing, and self medicating---doing what ever is necessary to avoid facing reality.

  Do women really want a man who is uncentered and unconfident that he would really alter himself for anyone else, including you?

  I think that we need to be who we are, we need to be true to ourselves. We need to be happy in ourselves and not be co-dependent for our happiness on anyone else. It is only by this that we can contribute to a happy relationship. It is necessary to inspire the other to grow and change by the choices you make for your own life. Not to push, prod, or drag the other along.

  Both partners need to know they are whole without the other. Seperate and connected, they don't need each other to survive. Instead the choose to be together because the relationship allows ME, HE, and WE to flourish.

  Only you can complete yourself.
