  I totally agree with Jim's first comment. Once we leave we get so much better.

  I can't blame all of my depression thru the years on dubdoom. My parents had their hand on the spoon , stiring the let's screw up our daughter, pot of depression.

  Years of abuse , neglect and family trauma , add a sprinkle or two of JW logic and you can have a seriously sad person.

  For years, I never felt good enough, was sick, physically, with unexplained illnesses. I later learned by studing the subject the role that guilt has on your mind and body , especially years worth ,if not a lifetime.

  Very interesting, that when i allowed myself to be free, to not go against my own conscience, I got better. I still have days when I feel like crap, that will never go away. I still have days where I get stressed and get headaches, etc. But it is so , so very much better.

  my parents kicked me out of their home 3 years ago when i started to question things.

  i was engaged to a ministerial servant and a regular pioneer shortly before everything happened.

  although i haven't been da'd or df'd i have been labeled an "apostate.

  Ok, another story that is breaking my heart, i guess it is good to cry sometimes and I cry for you Jana and all of us that have been turned away by our parents because of what the WT tells them to do. I too tried to be the perfect elders daughter and felt hopeless for letting them down over the most minor wrongs. I even wanted to end it all, all beginning at the age of 11 or so, I just didnt see things getting better. It is erie the way we all have the same story almost. I just hope your story will have a turn for the better, maybe your mom will have a change of heart , even if it is just a little ,it is better than nothing. I loved the way you said everything, It was really from the heart . I am sure it touched her. Just give it time, seems your mom may start seeing things, she just may need time to see it all. I wish you the best in everything Jana, and thanks for posting that letter , it was good to hear your story. Keep posting your thoughts , it will help alot to talk it out, it sure has help me. My email is on my profile so if you ever need someone to talk to or a listening ear,,,,,,,,,,, i will always be there for you..........

  Hugs, Dede

  Omg, LuckyLucy I am sitting here crying my eyes out , out of sheer appreciation. It was wonderful to see the bouquet of flowers and my mother's name out there. It seems like for so long , her name has been forbidden by so many , to even speak it , to remember her and a stranger with a heart of gold, says it. I havent been so move in quiet awhile. Thank you. I hope no one walks in on me now, i've got tears everywhere... but they are good tears, tears that she is being honored. At her funeral, since she was d/f not a soul showed up, not even to support me and wild who were active jw's. There were only a few flower arrangements................ she loved flowers,,,,,,, she even did it on the side at home ,she was talented in so many way. That always hurt me really bad ,,,no flowers.

  Thanks again............. I can't think of what eles to say...........

  Tinkerbell, i was in chat a few mins ago , andyou must have been onyour way out,, i have wanted to catch up with you , to tell you I love that poem. I have many I wrote to my mom, even letters, you always wonder why.

  Have you heard that song, where it says a soft place to fall,,,, it is the sister of shelby lynn, cant think of her name,,,,,,, the song was sung while robert redford danced with the woman in the horse whisperer........... i love that song........... omg i love that song. I will think of the singer in a minute , just a little overwhelmed right now and cant think.

  All my love to all of you,,,,,,,,,,,,, Dede oldest daughter of the beloved Lura Anne,

  Wild Turkey and I love to sit around and talk about all the crazy things we hear some have done while they were witnesses in their local kingdom halls. We are the type who love to laugh and have a good time. We pulled many antics ourselves at our hall. Can you imagine what a congregation would be like if several of us were in it together. Oh the evil things we could do, the jokes, the fun, the humor. I might would have stayed being a JW just to give the local elders hell. It would have been so fun to have ya'll in the congregatin together. We were the youngest in our hall,and it was boring. So we had to make our own fun.

  I will never forget many of the antics that many of you posted , things you did while in the very presence of God,no less. LOL.

  I wont name names, because i might get them wrong. But here are a few things that cracked me up ya'll did:

  The brother who went to the back of the hall to do a major fart.

  The brother who, pulled a hamburger out of his pocket and ate it right there in the middle of the meeting.

  The sister who sang the kingdom melodies, wrong, on purpose.

  The brother who irritated his daughter to pass time, and blamed it on his son.

  THe ones who defaced the watchtower, and other publications.

  THe ones who went out in the car to listen to ball games.

  The ones who wrote notes to each other making fun of the idiots on stage.

  The brother who carried several mini tape recorders to his judical meeting.

  God, there are so many more,............ feel free to tell some of the things you did, or the worst things you saw done at conventions, meetings, andfield service.

  I guess that is why I am so looking forward to the apostofest in Dallas, we get to act like fools and we wont get called to the little room. Well not that I know of anyway.

  It is true, wild does free ball at times, but i think it is sometimes because he can't find his unders.

  Beck , I swear you and I are connected somehow in this universe......... black and navy are my favs too. We always have alot in common, even down to our draws ( southern USA slang for panties).LOL

  How does god view women!!

  by haujobbz in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  .

  i always wondered why women in most religions seem to play the lesser role,like why cant women say a prayer for others if men are there to do it(refering to jws),men work and women play there role as housewife(ie:muslims),women cant be elders,women came from adam,women viewed as weaker vessel etc.its seems to me that the female is looked at as a lesser being by god and man as the dominant one,most sisters i knew just kept quiet about their roles as wifes and got a long with it,whereas 1 or 2 werent happy about how they were viewed by god,and i think they had a lot to offer others as regards congregational duties and their abilities were overlooked.

  by the i am a male ok lol!!!!!

  All of a sudden I have become complicated as to my undies. I don't know what brought this on, just my current obsession right now I guess. I am sure it is just a phase.

  I like grannie panties for sleep, or mens boxer and a tank top.

  I like silk or satin bikinis for everyday going to wal mart in my jeans .

  I like thongs when I go out in my dance clothes, or a special time with the hubby.

  This little fetish I have going on also includes bras........... ladies you know what I mean. Some days you want comfort, somedays you want and need support, sometimes you want sexy , sometimes you want cotton. Oh and the colors and styles,,,,,,,,, one of the many pleasures of life.

  Any analyst out there that can interpret what underware obsessions means????LOL
