bonus points if you don't mention wt publications!!
the first book that ever made me cry was the grapes of wrath by john steinbeck.
most recently, i was reduced to a blubbering wreck reading the five people you meet in heaven by mitch albom.
There are a lot of tear jerkers out there, aren't there?
A recently read one is The Time Traveller's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger.
An old favorite would be The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein.
how do you feel about it when a formally together couple split up and one of them talks really bad about the other to the children just to get the kids on thier side and to turn them against the other in revenge to sooth hurt feeling?
One of the most disagreeable tactics used during the breakup of a relationship. This harmful type of maneuvering usually back-fires, in time. Unfortunately, a lot of damage is done to the children in the process.
forenote from danny haszard i put this under mental health instead of current affairs news for good reason.
accused seller claimed to have a powerful device.
houston chronicle, tx - 5 hours ago.
Finally, the attempt to sell a "superbomb" did what abusing his wife and kids couldn't: getting this jerk-hole out of circulation and out of their lives.
last night i was channel surfing when i came across a discovery health program that followed cases in an emergency room.
one of them was about a jw woman who had some sort of head injury.
to be honest, i did not watch the whole thing, but i did manage to record it on my dvr while i watched other things.
Why were they dressed in suits and nametags? Did the accident happen around assembly/convention time?
Very sad situation Very frustrating to watch
"And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose."
i bought this album about a year ago, and this is probably the best song to describe how i feel about the org now.
fight test lyrics.
i thought i was right.
Fight Test - great song. Hows about some Madness?
Madness, madness, they call it madness
Madness, madness, they call it madness
It's plain to see
That is what they mean to me
Madness, madness, they call it gladness, ha-ha
Madness, madness, they call it madness
Madness, madness, they call it madness
I'm about to explain
a-That someone is losing their brain
Hey, madness, madness, I call it gladness, yee-ha-ha-ha
Propaganda ministers
Propaganda ministers
I've a-got a heavy due
I'm gonna walk all over you
'Cause
Madness, madness, they call it madness
Well if this is madness
Then I know I'm filled with gladness
It's gonna be rougher
It's gonna be tougher, pa-da-da, pa-da-da
And I won't be the one who's gonna suffer
Oh no, I won't be the one who's gonna suffer
You are gonna be the one, a-you
i was molested by my grandfather from the age of 3 to 7. he was also molesting his daughter (my aunt) and maybe others.
it was covered over and my entire family was actually shunned when we went to the elders when i was 18. i did not tell anyone about it until then because my grandfather had me believing our relationship was special and it was our little secret.. when confronted, he of course denied it.
my mother even spoke up of a time when he had tried to molest her when she was 8 months pregnant with one of my brothers.
I'm so sorry, .oO((Ashton)))Oo. and .oO(((KayKay))Oo.
as mentioned in my other thread, my daughter lena is having brainsurgery on monday, jan 24. the surgery will last 6-7 hours, so i'm hoping the board members will be willing to make a special effort tomorrow to send positive thoughts, healing energy, good wishes and prayers her way.
we are asking that the surgeon's hands be delicate and skillful and that lena does not bleed overmuch and that brain damage be minimal (if not non-existant).
surgery begins at 8 am eastern standard time (us), but we have to have her to the hospital by 6 am, so this is "good night!
Sending healing energy and many positive thoughts Lena's way.
