When I was married to my first husband...(not a JW) I asked him to write me a letter admitting infidelity. He said did, and I was scriptually free to marry.

I've seen some bad roll-overs, but only minor injuries. My husband goes out in the woods(muddin and rock climbing) as often as possible.
This guy rolled over two times. he wasn't hurt, but he was crying over his jeep..

AWAKE!, Watchtower," and Book titles that lie
by gumby in"good news for all mankind".
"the bible - a book for all mankind".
all of these title make it sound as if the world in general will oneday experience these things and not to worry.. the fact of the matter is.....jehovah's witnesses don't believe this at all.

last weekend my 7year old granddaugher was over visiting. She found the book "knowledge that leads to everlasting life" book.
She came running in all excited...and says "look....right here it says that this book contains information that can lead to everlasting life. That means we could live forever"
I said..."ewww...lets find a better book to read"

Dad's and daughters...
by Frog inlately i've been feeling incredibly frustrated by the relationship i have with a few members of my family who aren't attached to the org, or just hanging in by a thread.
my dad is one such person, love him to bits, but he really gives me the sh*ts with his poor me act grrrr.
i just get tired of always being the one who calls, who stays in contact, who visits etc.

I wish all the women here who are currently shunned by their dads could have an hour alone with them to hold them and once again be their little girl, the princess that they are charged to care for.
Once again? I don't remember the first time...

great ideas here. what would we do without the ladies of JWD.
wait I know what I would have probably done...... I would have bought the gift than sat in the parking lot until someone else showed up and looked to see it they were taking in a gift. But that's just me. Your way was much better...

We all traveled up from Florida to Wisconsin for the memorial. We were cooly treated at the KH. Then the family went back to the senior center where his parents lived. The congregation prepared a meal for the whole family. (Several "wordly" family members there.) I was talking with some of the relatives I hadn't seen for years, catching them up on what was new with Steve & I when the elders had Steve's brother-in-law walk back to the apartment to get Steve to get me out of there. I was not inviited to eat a meal with those grieving. *shock*
Hi Joy.... I have a question. What if when Steve came to get you, you said "No, I'm staying. And I'm going to eat with my family."
Would everyone else have left?, or maybe just the JW's? or Would they force you to leave? Maybe...they would not eat and just leave you and the worldly family members eating alone.
Just curious. There was a time that I would have left. Yep, I would have tucked tail and ran. Now I would tell them all to kiss my ass and do what ever I wanted to do.

XJW's And The Debt Factor
by hillary_step ina common feature many of us suffer from after exiting from the wts is that we are often left submerged in a morass of financial problems.
the 'live for today' attitude induced in us by the wts is certainly no help in building wealth, so few of us leave the wts without some damage happening to us financially.
in my own case it was a business partner who cleared out the business accounts when i was an overseas trip, no doubt justifying his fraud as i was now not attending meetings.

I would like to add, if you don't have a 401K, get one.There is a very good chance that you will retire in this "system of things™...you will need that nest egg. If you can open one at your place of employment, that is the best place to start. They will take the funds out before tax. It''s never too late to start, and if you have children starting in the work force incourge them to start now. Maybe they can retire younger.
Great post. Thanks.

since hopetofade's husband became an elder while smoking pot, can we conclude that the holy spirit approved of pot?
Welcome hopetofade, glad you found us....., I hope you are able to get your husband out soon. And I'm happy that you're letting your children grow up to be normal.
