  Holidays-nervous about celebrating them but don't understand why.

  by QuestioningEverything in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have came to the conclusion that all i learned while growing up as a witness is not the "truth'.

  i believe i have become agnostic in a short period of time.

  so, this year i decided that we are going to celebrate some holidays.

  Even though I havn't been to meetings for a number of years now,I still can't bring myself to celebrate,especially birthdays and christmas. Its not that I'm afraid that I will be seen by witnesses cos I don't give two hoots what anybody else thinks or tells me what to do,its just not in me to celebrate. I feel uncomfortable with the thought,I'm a complete bah humbug as far as xmas goes. I probably never will celebrate them,which is good as I don't have to pay out a load of money that I havn't got!!!

My friends and I used to sit on the front row operating the sound system,so as I got started into my talk the other 2 lads looke dup and they'd put polo mints(You know the mint with the holes)into their eyes.................I just cracked,couldn't carry on for laughing for a while....then got done on timing!!!

  our results were enlightening to say the least - we both scored 28/50 - not exactly brilliant although apparently above average.. take the quiz and post your results and comments..

  Very sad,Richard was not that old really. Some classic music came out of his brain.

  Wish you were here.

  PO reads a special letter tonight...

  by JWFreak in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  our po...who is really full of himself....reckons that he is reading a special letter tonight, he says he isn't allowed to tell fellow elders before the public reading.

  just a word of caution....our po...is one who loves all the mystery and secrets, so my inkling is that it will be a crock of crap.

  however it may prove to be interesting...i will tell you after meeting tonight.
