Way to go Spice! I use to practice yoga daily, and it's slipped away in my daily schedule now. I miss it. I'm interested in the moon ceremony you spoke of. Who would one speak to about attending one?
Enquiring minds want to know

email received from lawrence hughes, the father of the girl who is desparately ill from lukemia and has been involved in the recent court case with the watchtower...
simon ,.
my daughters health has improved because of the last chemo treatments.
This breaks my heart, and sickens me at the same time. The lack of intelligence noted on the pro-JW board makes me want to stick my arm through the monitor and slap some sense into those people.
I fear this is only part 1 of the suffering for this fine father. I cannot imagine the stress he is feeling, or the pain and anger. If only the daughter could realize this before she dies. The WTS will make a martyr out of her. Lies and gossip will abound.
I hope one day that the mother involved will be ashamed of what she's done. I sincerely hope there is a support system set up for the father. This is a textbook case of how the JooHoos tear families apart.
This is entirely too sad. Heart-breakingly sad.

hi this is my first post, i've been on line reading as many of the posts as possible this afternoon, i never realised this site exsisted.
i have to say, as an ex jw i was almost afraid to post.
old habits die hard i suppose.
Hi anac94 - and welcome!
You said you couldn't believe that your father would believe their BS. Hon, his thinking and reasoning abilities are stunted by his blind faith. We all acted like this - to some degree, when we were in. Take heart though - perhaps a grain of truth is getting in his thought process and is making him completely terrified that everything he believes in is a farce. Not all is lost.
We all tend to feel badly about having actually believed the Borg at one time. The positive thing is now we know better.
As for them paning off stupid statements - it's all they CAN do, without incriminating themselves. Go easy on yourself hon. I've been out for ten years and I only found this great board this year. Pull up a pillow and make yourself at home.

a teacher asks her class to use the word contagious.. james, the class swot, gets up and says, "last year i got the measles and my mum said it was contagious".. "well done james" says the teacher, "can anyone else try"?.
katie, a sweet little girl with pigtails says "my grandma says there's a bug going around, and its contagious".
"well done, katie" says the teacher.
Matty - NOT! I loved the joke - once I, ahem, got it (thanks to spice).
Yer a silly one Matt - but I luv ya. I miss ya on chat too.

Um, ah, well, yeh... help.

ok, i'm really green.
i heard about this site because of a link on the bbc website due to the paedophile stuff.
i'm a little confused.
Graeme - welcome hon. I went ten years without contact and then found this site. Feel free to email me. You can do a search for my story on this site. It's called My Story: Pieces of Me. My case was handled badly too. (more than not - that is what happens anyway)
big hugs,

i'm so lonely at night.
if not for my dogs, warm waterbed,.
the nightlight..... well i try not to cry.
I'm so lonely at night
If not for my dogs, warm waterbed,
the nightlight....
Well I try not to cry
I rock back and forth and
hugging my pillow,
I try to kiss the darkness good-bye
But then
Walking around I find me
hearing myself echo
Heaviness inside
I'm weary of distractions:
movies, internet and the radio
But,
It's only 2 hours to sunrise
There'll be some warmth again
and I'll avoid the void that is night time
For awhile.
Why is it so cold when you need warmth the most?
(You'll find I answer my own questions)
Hopes that get moldy and
need some shining up
I'm an electrical cord.....
unplugged
Is it asking too much for
someone special to hold me?
I'm not asking for too much......
I'm not.
When will this lonliness subside?
When will this heaviness go?
Sunrise......
For awhile.

india vs pakistan(bad spelling), past wars, future wars, it just dont stop... difference between wise humans and stupid humans.... we are destroying ourself.... * crying, walks away from the net for a while *
There are many times I have to take a break from reading the bloody news (no pun intended there) because of the sheer amount of man's inhumanity to man occuring around the planet on every given day.
And yes - get laid. That always helps, no matter WHAT the problem is.
