A young Chinese kid was drowning in a pool at a resort in Florida. He was weakly yelling for help, in Chinese, which nobody understood. A sunbathing woman came up to me and asked 'Do you think that kid is drowning?' Up until that moment I was as oblivious as everyone else. Being a very good swimmer I jumped in and grabbed him and with the help of the sunbathing woman, dragged him out of the water. Poor kid just lay on the pool deck gasping for air.

Has anyone ever saved another persons life?
by LogCon ini don't mean you advised them and they changed their lives around, kind of saving a life.. i mean right before your eyes, right now, you had to do something to save a person or they would be dead.. how did it make you feel?
did it have any affect on you?.
forty years ago i was working on a construction site and a back-hoe had loosened a large boulder.

Dale, I am glad you both found a voice in your marriage and beliefs, and that you were happy together. Being a JW was hard on all of us. So sorry to learn of your Parkinsons diagnosis. So difficult. I am wishing you the very best.

Ambien. Super effective. I take it every night and have for several years. You must go to bed immediately after taking it or you may end up sleep eating, texting, having sex or whatever. Some people don't tolerate it well, but millions do. I wake up refreshed every morning. Without it my brain wakes me repeatedly or won't turn off.

Great news quelly and blondie, when it comes down to the nitty gritty, work and RESPECT everyone or be fired, it may change the individual shunners attitude. We all know the WTBTS isn't going to help them find a new job or make their house payment when it comes due.

When in New York City about 12 years ago, I was expecting rude behavior. It never happened. While on the subway, I watched as a young teenager got up and gave his seat to a old woman who just got on. While waiting for my group to finish shopping, I sat on a bench, the man on the other side of the bench engaged me in conversation and he wished me well on my sightseeing journey before he got on his bus.
