28 years as a JW I can not remember one happy moment...28 years of constant fear, "Am I pleasing Jehovah today?" and just when I thought I wouldn't be destroyed at the big A a Convention would come around and remind me how much I wasn't doing enough to please Jehovah...

Were You A Happy JW or An Unhappy One?
by mentallyfree31 inwhen you were a witness, were you happy or miserable?.
i feel like i was pretty happy for over 20 of the 25 years.
only the last 5 years and especially the last 1-2 years did i really burn out and just wasn't that into it.

Brothers, did you like being asked to say a prayer?
by sacolton ini dreaded it!
i've seen brothers freeze-up doing prayers with long uncomfortable silences to think of what to say.
sometimes my mind would just go blank and i would panic at the thought if i paused.

When a brother was called to say prayer I could almost recite word for word exactly what he was going to say...Never being a MS or Elder never had the problem...

This is too good not to share!
by HappyOutsideTheBox inin her radio show, dr laura schlesinger said that, as an observant orthodox jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to leviticus 18:22, and cannot be condoned under any circumstance.
the following response is an open letter to dr. laura, penned by a us resident, which was posted on the internet.
it's funny, as well as informative:.

Why do they insist removing "God" from currency, removing anything religious from public view. OK rant over...flame on...

I'll give you a little example. We had an elder transfer into our hall, didn't even meet him for 1.5 years so you could say I wasn't very popular actually half the congo didn't know me and I was in regular attendence...
