  i have received two visits from car-groups this week and am trying not to freak out.

  a brother i know of was made up as an elder only some mere 6 weeks ago.

  out the blue he has gone total awol and has now been missing over 24 hours.

  several years ago, before my wife and i left, my 5 yr old daughter got up during the watchtower to cross the aisle to sit with someone else.

  she tripped on the roving microphone wire and smashed her head on the foot of a metal chair.

  the bleeding was profuse and an ambulance was called.

  i happened to access my old email address today.

  amongst the many spams etc was a email from a old jw freind i used to know when i was in.

  this was a nice freind to me, right up until she got herself a boyfreind and then just didn't want to know, in fact i hadn't heard from her since.

  2. relationships

  born a dub.

  never dated while in because i "wasn't ready for marriage", haven't dated since fade because i really don't want to burden my girlfriend with the bull@#% of dating me while i still have to put up a facade of being "just inactive" to my family so they won't shun me.. this sucks.

  i want to be happy.

  Fading vs. D'F'd

  by Band on the Run in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i don't know the details.

  is it true that if you slowly withdraw, you are free to go but if you are active and do an offense, you are shunned.

  is their principle whether you are appropriating and blemishing the name vs. severity of the actual offense.

  England is poisoned for me

  by highdose in

  2. experiences

  i used to live in a part of england that was popular with tourists.

  the kind of tourist who wanted to experiance the "real" rural england.

  they would come to my town and thrill at the quaint old shops, delight in afternoon tea at the many little tea rooms.

  funny times growing up a witness

  by strymeckirules in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i was raised from the age two as a witness by my new recruit parents in 1981. i was born in 79.. i didn't like being jw, and that didn't mean i was a saint.. and my parents were fanatical and still are.. i have an an older sister and a younger brother and we are all 2 years apart.. my brother and i were a riot.

  mischeivious, rambuctious, hyperactive and not afraid of nothing.. we had games over the years.. like singing in british accents during the songs(and during bible reading at family study) and screwing with the word just loud enough for each other to hear.. we used to have armrest battles when we sat beside eachother.

  pushing elbows until the other slipped and got in trouble.

  i never could, like some others described, i could never ever see myself there, i just couldnt imagine it at all,.
