i am disfellowshipped.
whoa.
i just wrote that as the first thing.
Scully, that is so true, i now have friends who like me as I am. I do not tiptoe on every action or word, it really is nice to be myself.
Sally, so much of the worry about - am I doing the right thing is natural. We were taught to brainwash our own way of thinking so that we become apprehensive at anything that isnt taught by the Watchtower.
Start off by making friends locally. Isolation just makes things worse.
what can i say...i love music.. revelations 14:3 talks about the 144,000 and how they sing a song that no one else can learn but them.. 3 and they sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders.
no one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth.
my question is....do the members of the 'annointed' class already know that song.

someone replied to a post i entered and got me thinking what others perceive about us due to the nicks or id we have chosen.
some of the nicks i am sure are just self explanatory , others are cute, or simple.
although i suspect that very many in this room,took time to think of theirs and definitly the nick holds some little secret as to who they are as a person.
After I woke up from being such a zombie, I decided that life is more enjoyable being "Myself"
after eighteen years of marriage, my husband passed away last year of a terminal liver disease.
today is the aniversary of his death.
he died on april 22, 2001 and he was the love of my life.
((((Dutchie))))
here is the situation: my wife is a very faithful true believer (and a wonderful person, i will add, who really wants to do what's right) i have been da'd about a year, and we have 2 children.
our oldest is 13, and really buys into the witness line ( as, of course, i professed to until last summer) and i am fairly sure she is considering baptism.
here is my question: as one half of her parents, is there any legal doctrine that would allow me to prevent her baptism until she is 18?
og,
I am Noi's sister and i can assure you that the time she lost with our father is a terrible loss of many years. These years can never
be replaced. They have a relationship now, but there are so many things that they will never be able to replace. You have so much to consider. Your daughter is at the beginning of her teenage years. This as an emotional enough time as it is. You will risk the chance of a loss for not maybe years, but possibly the rest of your lives. That is a high price to pay. Can you still accept her if she makes the choice to be baptised? She is going to be making decisions the rest of her life and needs to know that no matter what, you love her and will help her when she needs you.

not always a good idea........ a couple have reportedly ended up in hospital after painfully finding out that oral sex and cooking don't mix.. the woman is said to have bitten the man's penis after he spilt hot oil on her back as she performed the sex act while he made pancakes.. it is the second similar accident in romania in two years.
in november 2000, ananova reported how the same thing happened to a couple in bucharest as a man was frying chips.. the embarrassed young couple in the latest episode have asked doctors in craiova not to reveal their identities.. the man came to hospital with his penis severely bitten, while his girlfriend had burns on her back and an injury in her head.. a paramedic says the surprised man hit her on the head with the pan after his penis was bitten, reports romania's editie de oltenia newspaper.
they were both allowed home after treatment.. unfortunately for virgil cures, who was reportedly injured in the first incident, his girlfriend ana bit through his penis and doctors had to spend four hours rebuilding the damaged organ.. the hospital is staying tightlipped about who the couple involved in the latest incident were.. dr andrei pana, a hospital spokesman, told ananova: "if our patients specifically request confidentiality regarding their cases, we have nothing to do but to respect that.
Ouch! * think's maybe the washing machine on spin cycle would be more fun
- survivors and families of victims of the oklahoma city bombing marked 168 seconds of silence friday one tick of the clock for each person who died in the bombing exactly seven years ago.. this is just a reminder that this event personally affected at least one of the members on this board that i know of.. {{{{ cowboy}}}}... my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
((((Cowboy))))
I will never forget that day, or the moment it broke on the news. My heart truly goes out to you and your family. This will be my only post tonight I dedicate my silence tonight and my heartfelt wishes that your pain and the pain of others will ease somehow.

some friends of mine are having a very difficult time.
there names are glen & judy.
judy has cancer, their teenage daughter commited suicide 6 months ago, and glen (a fellow record collector), got busted by the fbi for having "bootleg" recordings (unreleased concert recordings, etc), and was fined $1000 per recording.. they could really use prayer.. thanks, .

so sorry to hear what your friends are going thru. I hope things start looking up for them soon. My prayers are with them.
