as we live in the "great white north" the weather does not always co-operate with us and sometimes we would have to go outdoors for field service in the winter months.

so i remember my father giving the congregation some tips when the householder would open the door!

Tricks to get into a home on a cold day...

Ask to use their phone.

Offer to clean their home, babysit or prepare lunch.

Open your coat to reveal you are wearing a bikini underneath.

Seriously,

It breaks my heart to see the elderly witnesses going door to door in this weather. It is SO cold up here and we have SO much snow. Its sad.

Help me Help a JW Friend

i am not jw nor have i ever been.

i do not know the ends and outs of the jw religion.

i have an employee who is jw.

Having been a Morman and then leaving your faith, Im sure you understand impact of being shunned and condemned. You were taught something for many years and then found out it wasnt true. You know full well what it feels like to be lied to by an organization that you trusted with your life.

Your friend may be feeling extreme guilt over the divorce and not attending the meetings.

The one thing that helped me get over my guilt complex was being able to discredit the organization. I already knew they were manipulative and controlling, but that wasnt enough. I needed to know for a fact they were false, so I could deny them as an authority over me. I needed scriptural or written proof of their lies and falsehoods.

Along with Crisis of Concience, I would suggest the book, "Jehovahs witnesses who love the truth" by Joan Cetnar.

Joan compiled many of the societies own publications to show the world how they have been contradicting themselves for years. It also provides biblical proof of the WTS being false prophets.

I remember my aunt was feeling very guilty because she was a smoker and couldnt kick the habit. She couldnt get baptized because of this and beat herself up constantly for not being able to live up to the societies expectations of meeting attendance and service hours.

I gave her Joans book and she seemed in better spirits soon after. She has since passed away, but I only wish I would have given it to her sooner since she had spent so many wasted years, wallowing in guilt.

Best wishes to your friend.

He is lucky to have such a caring one as you.

Well that must be it. Im fully dressed, no wonder I havent gotten the hang of it yet.

BB,

I looked very closly, but my laptop doesnt appear to have a nub of any color. I loved the way you described handling it though, very erotic. Gheesh, I wish mine had one..

Thanks Estee & Rub

The Hate of Winter

one day my flowers died, .

wilted from not enough rain.

the petals fell to the ground.

Robyn,

Im glad that you arent really serious about your post.

I guess reading your poem and comming upon the ending was just a little shocking to me. I think I take things like that pretty seriously, since at one point in my life, I have wanted to end it all. I have also known many, including my own mother, who didnt want to continue living, at one point or another.

I would never consider suicide at this point in my life, but I know how easy it is for someone to fall into that mindset, if pushed hard enough.

Rob,

"Fuck it, I think I'll die" is "just a poem to you"?

Im sure people who care about you would be very concerned.

Its not often something like that comes out of nowhere as those words arent usually taken lightly, especially to those who have felt that way, or are currently feeling that way about their life.

So many have trouble with depression and have thoughts of death and suicide, its a very serious subject .

I sincerly hope you arent having these feelings, but if you are, I hope you have someone close you can talk to. Maybe your husband could lend a shoulder, sometimes they are more understanding than we give them credit for.
