  by solomon in

  2. friends

  today's study picks on the most vulnerable among us.

  the mentally ill. .

  the watchtower apparently hasn't learned that depression and mental illness are that a medical condition.

  last night the folks on the weather channell were referring to our rainstorm as "the mess in the west.

  " they always have to have a catch phrase, don't they.

  i understand oregon is getting dumped on, up to a foot of rain in some areas, but we're closer to the southern end of the storm and they say we're just getting a few inches.. anway, isn't rain glorious?

  sizemik,

  This area is truly beautiful.

  I have drivin this route many times, We always stop at the BlackeBear Cafe in Shasta , were Hortensia lives, for waffels and real milkshakes. It's a small town with that huge Mount Shasta behind it.

  From there it's down hill going north to Oregon, where there is a nice town called Ashland, that has a very good Shakespear festival . They do contempary plays too. Many world travelers are there. I love this town and hope to settle there one day.

  Rain lover here too. It igves me a nice calm energy. Makes me want to pull weeds and write.

  It's not cold here, so the windows are open and I have a nice nutmeg-vanilla candle burning. Got a pile of none religious cards to send to family and friends

  Thursday it was pouring and sunny at the same time while I was driving around town. I thought 'rainbow', there has to be one. I turned around the city street and there it was. I could see it bottom to bottom on both sides. I felt strangley blessed.

  Robert7, please do NOT allow SPARKY to be "PUT DOWN"!!!!!!

  robert, i've given you my contact information and i'm going to pm it again - please please please pass it along to whomever has the cat right now.. i have pets, and it would kill me to think that, if i were dreadfully sick or lay dying, that my beloved pets were going to be dumped into an animal pound or put down, just because no one would take them..... to you, perhaps, it's just a cat, but the cat was oompa's 'friend', and i'd like to try to save him.. as to 'biting' - heck, i've two cats right now who are - actually, were - 'biters'.

  they both stopped biting after they'd been here in a loving, stable environment for a while - well, that, and when they bit me, i grabbed 'em by the scruff and told them in no uncertain terms that that sort of behavior would not be tolerated.... both have stopped biting - well, chomper [guess how he got his name?

  ] still gives me little 'love nips', but nothing like he used to.... so please, let's not write off oompa's cat yet!!!.

  To funny Hortensia.. I love this woman too.

  I've always called turkey the vehicle meat, much like tofu.

  It's something for all the yummy sides and fresh tangy cranberry sause to hitch a ride on.

  It can make a good sandwich, if you have dark fresh rye bread , butter leaf lettuce, mayo, Tapitio Sause (I use it on everything accept in my coffee;-), cranberry sause, etc. But you know, the last bight you take , the corner end that has no turkey in it , well it taste the same as the middle.

  I'm sorry to hear you are so sick. In spite of this, you do so much for others. Friends and strangers.

  In my book you are 'sainthood material'. You have my admiration.

  If I could, I would give you a big hug.

  A Loving father.

  by creativhoney in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  one parallel i always remember is that jehovah god is likened to a loving father.

  i have often wondered what kind of loving parent would go out indefinitely, not say where they were and leave their kids a vague and cryptic note of what to do while they were gone?

  i have wondered what kind of parent would make it hard for their kids to figure out exactly what was expected of them, or watch them fail miserably from a distance.

  My "imperfect' Human Father is a billion times more loving than the 'Father' of the Old Testament.

  Heck , I would have been eaten by bears as a kid. or stoned as a teen for some trivial thing. Or someting that my parents did, may have given me a soaking in the Flood.

  would you have not taken a blood transfusion or a transplant because the gb said it was bad?.

  would you have imitated the jws in concentration camps and died for your beliefs?.

  I lived in terror of the concentration camp. I had re-acurring dreams of my parents being shot , exicution style by Gustapo looking men at a very young age , Plus I was hiding ..guilt. . When I was in my 30s I read everything about Hitler's Germany , I had piles of books. Why? I wanted to know why??? MY daughter is the same. She has the same fear.

  Growing up in the 70s , that horrible yearbook, with the graphic stories, was so scary.
