its not easy being an introvert in an extrovert worldespecially when youre a kid.
it is even more difficult if none of the adults in the kids life recognize that the child is an introvert.
this doesnt happen only when the childs parents are extroverts, but also with introverted parents who have never understood their own introverted nature.. .
Thank You darth frosty for this topic.
I have learned so much about myself.
It is like a weight being lifted off my shoulders.
I'm not a freak...smile.
It's even OK that my Mother wont read anything about this.
It is what it is, and I am grateful for my cherished Friends and Family that understand me.
This information and all the thoughtful responces, changed the way I view myself.
.
marked.
and im sending it to my last therapist who argued with me that JW's didnt do this. I got so frusterated . how could he tell me what I saw ?
they are truly un-natural.
with the unveiling of the new jw logo, and all of the emphasis placed on it , will the borg dare to put it on a flag?
i hope they do!
imagine all whom would wake up with such an act!
as i was writing a comment in another thread, my auto correct on my tablet changed 'witnesses' to 'twit nesses'.
i lost it laughing!.
even my tablet knows the truth about the truth!.
Smile.
Love it too stuckinarut. Plus it was auto-correct..haha!
Reminds me of the old pro J.W. discusion board that has long since bit the dust. It was Witness.net.
Someone nicknamed it Witless.net. ;-)
good morning brothers and sisters, remember to watch john walsh interview our brothers and sisters about brother mclean from oregon, the most wanted pedophile and top ten fbi's list of perps!

can you help bump this topic until the show is over, we have large amounts of vistors coming, seeking help and direction.
It's a 2 part show of the Hunt. The JW story is the 2nd part of the hour.
A few minutes away on the west coast.
The show repeats again right after .
EDIT.
CNN's description is not matching what is on.
EDIT2

we are going to edinburgh today to see what's going at the festival, go out for a meal and probably see a show.. i have made up some cards with the jwfacts.com logo to hand to jws on the trolleys.
there is nothing on the cards part from the logo.
ttatt is only a click away..
Love it cofty.
You are so very brazen...smile
and by "cult" i mean any organized religious group outside of the mainstream--.
which one would you select?.
let's say you were compelled to remain an active member for one year--which one do you choose and why?.
The Human Awareness Institute (HAI)
It's certainly not main stream.
Some do take it to a cult level.
I'm curouse and I imagine I would learn to be more comfortable around strangers and in my own skin.
besides having to sit through endless boring meetings during the evenings when they should be in bed getting their necessary rest for school the next day, they are falling asleep in the chairs with their little heads falling over.
then all their fun is taken away by such a strict religion and a desert god which makes them grow up with no self esteem whatsoever.
they tell them they're all sinners from the womb up and only a rod will remove it.
very true Jeanette,
and to add to nuggets comments about the adult topics.
My family wouldnt let me take sex ed in school.
I thought I was dying when I started my period in 6th grade.
Ironic; I learned more at the hall about sex, ( espically all the naughty/fun stuff and at a to early age. But no prctical information at the right time.
there was a convention in milwaukee from june 20th-22nd.
the witnesses literally took over our hotel!
they were more demanding than i remember when i was a kid.
TheOldHippie.
IMO, You are not, and have never been a Hippie.
old timers, or careful readers of the proclaimers book, are familiar with the "testimony card" used in the early days of rutherford-era door to door witnessing.
the jw would traipse up to a house, knock, hand the card over to the householder, and wait while he read it.. well, it seems that "everything old is new again".
here is an excerpt from a recent boe letter:.
Agreed Blondie. I know brilliant people in the Silicon Valley and they get sucked in too.
