boring and useless, a waste of valuable time..
I love my life but I hate the long Canadian Winters. If I had a choice, I would spend longer times down south. I would still be a witness either way. I think that, that Seasonal Affectiveness Disorder (SAD) affects me.
The JW environment is kind of like the work/family atmosphere. You can't choose your workmates/brothers or sisters. So you pick who your friends are going to be.
The JW life may not be for some that can't live up to the rules though.
a close family member just informed me what happened during their last c.o.
visit.
this occurred 3 months ago.
Yes, this is not unusual. In one year we lost 4 Elders. The individual reasons were kind of similar.
1) Children that went to university
2) Wife that never came to a meeting because of depression
3) Wife divorced her Elder husband because she wanted a child, and he didn't.
4) Service hours fell below 10 hrs a month for the husband and wife.

Well, I'm glad we are getting to the source of the problem. I thought that maybe the removed Elders were wearing colorful socks with metero sexual suits.
Maybe theirs wive's were wearing spandex, and refused to exercise in cotton. Maybe their daughters were dating non ministerial servants. Refusing to conform to those new directions would be indecisive.
many jws enjoy turkey on thanksgiving day and are often discreet about their indulgences.
why be two faced?
why try to excuse it?.
But, if the Jews start eating bacon, what is this world coming to?

Well, it seems that many JW families have Turkey on Thanksgiving day. But, I;m Canadian, and if I have Turkey on the date that the US declares Thanksgiving, am I really celebrating it? One thing is for sure, the Bethelites are not having Turkey. It's really crazy how petty it's getting with a certain food that is ok to eat any of the 365 days a year.
i certainly wouldn't.
and if the elders wanted to have a meeting with me, i would respectfully decline.
if the elders wanted to deal with you, would you talk with them?.
I would go if they let me wear my coloured socks, spandex pants, and Metero sexual shirt.

Is it possible to have a Dandy, Canadian? "Dandy" is a word that applies to the British. I remember when the Herman's Hermits had a hit single called Dandy.
is it me, or am i getting to become an old man.
i just can't figure out the music this year.
it's like i don't want to leave the easy listening hits of the 70's-80's.
Remember when Garth Brooks used to take all the awards. Now a days he just can't seem to make comeback.
how many times have you asked a jw who has attended a public talk how the talk was, only to be told it was so great!
yet they cannot remember the title nor any one single point except that the brother was "funny" or was good with illustratiions or some other vauge point?
and conventions weren't far off either.
Kindof like when I went to High School.
Fractions????? WTF is that?

Is it me, or am I getting to become an old man. I just can't figure out the music this year. It's like I don't want to leave the easy listening hits of the 70's-80's. Then the hits became thin.
Why didn't Anthony slam the music of this year. Surely it's gotta be worse than the socks, spanx, meterosexual wear.
