i think that we should have a party to celebrate the year 2014. yes, it's a few years away but it's a pretty significant mark in time.
it could be a lot of fun!
any ideas or suggestions ?.
OTWO-that is exactly what I was thinking, somewhere in the middle.
LOL at the 'invisible' party!!
It would be a celebration of life-life that has continued despite the lies of the WT, a celebration of the fact that many have overcame their bondage and are now living free from that mess.

back in the early 80's right after i was married the main driving point i kept hearing at the meetings was "do more,,, pioneer ".. well being the young impressionable jw couple that we were, .
my wife is a speech therapist, so working pt was no problem, but i ended up working construction, cleaning carpets, and shoveling snow at all hours with the brothers, and i worked like a d*** fool at all hours.. funny how there was so much support for me to work with the witnesses, but once the decision was made work could be very iffy at times.. and the main thing that just causes me to cringe now is how so many of the witnesses in charge of the congregation thought that we did not need insurance, my wife had a policy with her school district, but my son and i did not.
granted medical expenses were not as bad then, but just the idea of thinking that we did not need it that god would watch over us just embarasses me to no end now.
I cringe to think that at one time I would have refused a blood transfusion for my children. It makes me ill to think that I would have even thought for a second on whether or not to give them one if a medical emergency arrived.
the holy bible and wicca.
can you explain that?.
LOL!!!! very funny---Leolaia
per a recent boe letter:.
-- new manual will be softcover.
-- elders can keep their old elder manual if they choose.
Mary---that was too funny!!
so what silly things have you been counselled on or simply been told off for?.
back in my early 20's, i had a pair of comfy old jeans that started to tear in about 3 places on the leg.
it was the fashion at the time so not only did they feel great to wear, they also looked 'in', not that i cared for that, but it was a bonus .
My sister Jay got counseled for wearing a shirt with an anchor on the front of it to the TMS. The sis told her that her shirt looked patriotic. Really? My sister Jay was about 12 years old at the time.
also, another sister told my mom she shouldn't buy Lucky Charms cereal.
how they're feeling, coping?.
well, do you?.
thanks to those who respond.. syl.
Yes. I may not know them personally. Yet, I know from experience how they are feeling when they first post on here. It's a scary, confusing time for them.
And I know when I first posted, I appreciated more than words can say how wonderful everyone was. It really helped me see that I was going to be okay. I am so grateful to this day for this website and the people who post on it.
