Lucinda__first love.....prison and Jehovah's Witnesses
by Terry inin 1967 i couldn't play piano or any other musical instrument.
but, i could chord with my left hand and peck out melody in my right hand!.
in fact, i was quite compelled to compose music the way teenagers are often overwrought with hormone driven compulsions to express themselves!

I used to dream of space travel in the new system. After all, we had eternity to travel light years away. Oh well, living a very happy JW free life here on earth.

From another thread: "Nothing excites me more than having my intellect called into question. I must say, I get annoyed from time to time. But, I'm 6'1" a very lean 205#, I'm quite attractive, well-spoken, I make a great living while doing very little actual work, and I have a larger than average penis"
Wow! Maybe we have one among us.

todays WT study...the picture...?
by stillin ini wish i could scan it and get your thoughts.
it was a picture of a happy group of witnesses during a meeting for field service.
there was a. comment from a local high-horse-rider about a brother in the front row in the picture being disobedient.

The guy up front on the left is Steve. He's feeling sad and sorry for himself because Selma decided he was due a little payback last night and smacked him upside the head. Brother Conductor told him to read 1 Cor. 13:4-7 and pray. Obviously he was not doing a very good job of cultivating the Christian qualities cited in the scripture.
(Sorry...I was so disgusted by that now infamous paragraph I needed to put a spin on it)

Might I suggest a small 2-3 foot tree? Let him pick out the decorations and lights and set it up in his room. You could even go back to the old tradition of putting the tree up on Christmas Eve and have lots of gifts waiting when he wakes up. The benefit of having a small tree is that it can be hidden easily if need be (sadly I know this for a fact). Even a little bit of Christmas would be better than no Christmas at all. I remember as a kid taking an ivy plant in my room, wrapping it with a red hair ribbon and hiding it under my bed. That was my first Christmas tree. I think you have the ability to give your child a nice Christmas and still maintain family peace. If he blabs about it just tell them he wanted a tree and he wouldn't let the idea go so you caved and bought a tiny one. Sad to have to lie? Yes. But I say oh well in this case. Give your kid some kind of a normal Christmas. He deserves it and so do you IMHO.

To add to what leavingwt said. We don't always know how much something costs. I work in a very small office so my boss has wine ($$$ wine) delivered to the office. One day his partner's son, who cleans the office, helped himself to a bottle. It was worth over $200.00. Needless to say my boss was not happy. Also there is the issue as jomavrick mentioned of whether something has sentimental value. If it's a problem for her perhaps she should have told the second person that she would like her things left alone. And if she was upset with you she should have nicely explained why and made amends (you did watch her 4 cats for 3 weeks).
