Reached Out Only To Be Rejected
by Quendi inlast month i got word that a witness i had known had died suddenly.
i hadn't spoken to her since my disfellowshipping six years ago, but we had been good friends.
upon learning of her death, i wrote a letter of sympathy to her fleshly brother, also a witness, who had been a good friend of mine as well.

Quendi, I am so sorry you have lost a friend (did I know her?). What you did was beautiful and I am sure it was/is appreciated.
When my brother was killed I could not function properly for a couple of years. I never responded to any of the cards I received, and yet everyone of them meant the world to me. I still have them all by my bed - I will never get rid of them because of how deeply every card touched me. Before Derek's death, I rarely sent sympathy cards, now I always do. I am sure your card meant a lot to the brother. You did the right thing.

Well, it's official, I am a rabid, mentally diseased Apostate!
by serenitynow! inso an apostabuddy wanted to stage a silent protest at the assembly hall where she was baptized.
we went today.
the plan was to wear these apostate t-shirts that had stuff printed on them about thinking for yourself, and a bunch of websites.

Seeking Reinstatement
by Quendi inno, i'm not seeking to be reinstated so don't worry.
but i did want to raise a point in relation to this.
i know this was true in my case and i've seen it in others i have talked to about this.

Dear Quendi, I so agree. Even the the society often states that a person returned because of the strict stand the family took against them.

"The Brothers"
by jambon1 in.
the longer you spend away from the organisation, the more utterly cringeworthy this term sounds when you hear it.. like they are all one big happy family.
what jw phrases make you cringe?.

Hilarious "wardrobe worksheet" in new YPA book!
by cedars induring a quiet moment i picked the latest ypa book down from my bookshelf.
it's pretty much stayed there since my relatives came back from the latest convention.
i couldn't bring myself to see the extent to which the society is now trying to claw its way into the lives of teenagers.

WOW! The borg has to control everything
Has the society addressed whether it is proper to stand or stay seated when men pee?
I am surprised they have not come out with a male only and female only "handbook"

SPRINT....You are in such a tough spot - I am sorry you are going through this. I also have parents the same age that are die-hard regular pioneers, living off their small SS check each month. They think they are happy, so I say nothing. It would kill them to find out the Borg is a lie.
