Today is my 10th anniversary!

none of my three marriages lasted that long!

today is the tenth anniversary of my being disfellowshipped.

apparently i am much better at being disfellowshipped than being married.. i might end up getting married again someday, but i will definitely not return to the cult.. say amen!.

They keep sending the comments, i have no idea why they bother reading it, if your going to attack me both bother, i'm don't care anymore i'm here and your there,

Quentin " ke surfers wax their boards?" Yup, we do wax our boards, i have no idea how surfers wax there boarders but i'm create a video how to wax a board!

Postive note my new website should be up and running in a mouth, i'm working hard on it i have a ton of school work, but the future is postive, the newset news is i can't wait to do races, i just need to save up to buy a race board, bindings, boots, and a season pass for a local mountaina and a rail card. :P read my blog to stay posted on the lastest news!

Here's the comment:

Dude! Think about what you're doing! You really want to trade people who really love you for people who are encouraging you to be selfish? They don't want what's best for you. They want what's best for themselves. They are selfish and so they're encouraging you to be selfish so they don't feel bad about themselves. Being selfish is not all it's cracked up to be. It makes you miserable.: So, i'm doing somthing selfish, ummm. my freinds don't seem selfish, i dont't think i'm doing anything selfish!

for the last few weeks i have been pretty busy as we were moving to a new house.

my wife did most of the packing but when it came to the move, i realized that there are things we own that we had forgotten about because we haven't used them for years!

on top of the list was old wt publications that no longer contain the "truth" and publications available on the wt cd.

Snowboarder

Haha, that's what i did too. :P

"The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark.”

So, true, i still don't understand why they bother reading my blog if they don't like it, and if anyone has facebook please message me i'll send you my info and add ya. Well Jehovah's witness are odd......everyone JW unadded me on Facebook, expect 2, they don't care that's i'm not a JW. i don't care if they don't want to be friends then fine. I was very much disappointed with one friend that i used to go skiing with,

What do u think of my blog? Any comments or suggestion's? It's my birthday in 3 days.

transhuman68, thnks i have no idea why do they even bother to read my blog if they don't like it, and they comment that my goals are unattainable, ya maybe for them, why don't they try, at least i tried and i'm going to give it my best it's better to fail but you tried then to never try. Sometimes i think we humans are scared of failure, but you never know if you don't try. you need to have confidence in your self.

Everyone please read my new post!

Nessrriinn's Story

by jwfacts in

this is a beautiful account by nessrriin of her growing up and leaving the muslim faith.

the parrallels with leaving the watchtower faith is quite remarkable, even the similarity of terminology such as; the truth, conventions, guilt, study more, apostate, "there is no questioning allah".. there have been several accounts lately of people torn by the question "what if the watchtower is correct"?

hopefully this video will help show that your religious belief is due to your religious upbringing, not that it really could be "the truth.".

Snowboarder

the video draws so much similarities to Jehovah's witness, and i feel so connected to her, it's like me, my mother used to be the same expect for the school part that was different i could work with any student on any project. I can connect to her so much, i'm going thought the same i went thought the same questions and thoughts and emotions. My heart still breaks to my family that's in the JW,we went thought so much and now the JW is breaking all of that. I love my parents and they were good parents, but i wish they did not have to be so strict with the JW stuff.

Watchtower 2011 July 15 Study Edition: Are all study editions like this?

by Tuber in

so during my research on the wts, i stubled across a link to the july 15th watchtower.. .

http://download.jw.org/files/media_magazines/w_e_20110715.pdf.

i'm assuming that the study editions are the ones that they only give to members/ those who attend meetings.. .

Snowboarder

Now i know why i'm stupid i'm mentally diseased, so that's why i'm studying German in University.

"Don't greet, allow visits from, read literature from, watch tv programs featuring, read websites by, or comment on the blogs of false teachers (apostates). We love Jehovah's ORGANIZATION. Don't be "soured" by anyone who would speak against the ORGANIZATION."

Now i know why my blog is evil, because i spoke against the ORGANIZATION!
