it just had a big impact on me when i was leaving the watchtower, i still play it now.. "soul 2 soul" keep on moving.
i was playing that a lot at the time so it had an impact on memories.. "havent you heard" patrice rushen.
great thread
mine was IN THE END by Linkon park.
LINE.
THINGS, ARENT THE WAY THEY WERE BEFORE. YOU WOULDNT EVEN RECOGNISE ME ANYMORE. NOT THAT YOU KNEW ME BACK THEN, BUT IT ALL COMES BACK TO ME IN THE END.
AND EVEN THOUGH I TRIED IT ALL FELL APART, WHAT IS MEANT TO BE WILL EVENTUALLY BE A MEMORY OF A TIME I TRIED, AND GOT TOO FAR, BUT IN THE END IT DIDNT REALLY MATTER, I TRIED TO HARD TO LOSE IT ALL, BUT IN THE END IT DIDNT REALLY MATTER.
AHH
im mistin up.
cheers

i was 13 at the time.
i wanted to get baptised before the end came in 1975. .
back then, 13 was borderline young for baptism, but from what i've been reading, some are now getting baptised as young as 9 or 10. .
i was the mature age of 12 .

it would have been 11 but they messed up my questions so i had to wait.
i bet the people in the twin towers never thought they would be the victims of a terrorist attack.
sometimes the stuff that happens overseas seem so far away.
i look around my community and find it hard to believe that anything is going to happen here.. i live in southern califonia, near san diego, and who knows?
i live in northern ireland
ive had my house blown up once.
ive been attacked by angry mobs twice.
ive seen several bombs go off nearby, killing 6 people.
ive know many hurt by it too.
and allthough i hope not, im pretty certain ill see it again.
one little point though. America is not the only place to suffer terror attacks. All mine were paid for by loyal irish Americans.
of corse lots of others, from Chili to Afganistan can thank the good old U S government for supporting terror in their countries.
maybe a good place to start ending terrorism is in American wallets.

not necessarily in order of importance:.
number one: your theocratic ministry school had a "a", "b", and "c" school.
other clues: many of the elder's wives aren't even in it.
A very well written peice.
i can only add one thing. They stop harassing ones who leave.
i left 2 years ago. my freinds and family all know my feelings about the "truth" and ive helped about 8 others leave in my hall.
the result ?
no visits. no interest. only an announcement recently stating that "all the ones wjhove recently left are to be considered bad accosiates.
very weird indeed.

after reading about the two jw's committing suicide and larc's comments, how many of us have considered suicide?
i saw a movie about a man trying every trick in the book to committ suicide and failed.
it got to the point in the movie that you know his next new attempt would fail.. most likely some people prefer to die without committing suicide.
yup tried it once. spent a while on prozac, gettin better these days.

i just arrived there yesterday afternoon where my bro-in-law dropped me off.
my first night's sleep wasn't exactly eventful since there is no beds available and i have to sleep on the pews which my body doesn't exactly agree with hard wood and no cushion on it.
so i didn't sleep very well.
dear yizuman
like many others, ive been praying for you a bit. if i could help more i would. if you lived nearby id move you in. i sincerly hope things improve for you.
i will keep on praying if thats ok

who doesnt partake by the way
well folks, i am posting from the library since my phone got disconnected last week friday.
so i may not be able to read any replies here when i leave the computer.
my sis is picking me up sometime around 3:15 pm which is a few minutes or so.. i came to the library today to meet a representative from the voc rehab for an orientation and got an appointment to see someone for new hearing aids on april 23rd at 11 am at the goodwill building here in town.. i also got a hold of an attorney who advised me to file a motion of continious or postponement until i am able to confer with a legal representative about my eviction case.. so i have typed one up here at the library and not sure if i got it all down right, my sis knows what the attorney needs for me to do so i will check and make sure that i got it right through here and make any corrections if she feels it needs any.. the court date is supposed to be this wednesday at 9 am, so hopefully my motion is granted before then.. pretty much all i have to say.. wish me luck!.
hi zizuman
as allways im hoping things work out for the best.
cheers
