National Teachers appreciation week
by lostinthought ini know that there were a few threads on nures' week, but before this week ends, it's also national teachers week also!
i respect all the nurses( i almost became one) but i found my true calling in education.
it was my job that helped me "wake up" to the truth about the "truth"...it was working with children (and some adults) on a daily basis that helped me to see not all wordly people are bad.. say thank you to a teacher tomorrow!.

little things that make you see the "truth" about this religion
by lostinthought ini had tears in my eyes at work today.
there was an arbor day celebration and some teenagers had some speeches and they planted a tree...most people would not be as touched by the events today as i was but one of the women recieving an award said that she was proud of these children because they were doingsomething good for the communtiy...and i was proud of them too, but i was sad for jw's who would think these children are "bad" just because they are not witnesses...or the jw who would not let their children associate with these teenagers or even be part of a "wordly" club..that's what made me sad, all those years i missed looking at the little beautiful things in life in a positive light and not the negative debbie downer way jw's look at things..

Help! I need sane people...
by lostinthought inlatley i have been telling some of my family members that i don't beleive anymore, i had my mom especially not really beleiving either...then today's special talk scared her into submission to the wt society.
i guess the brother started crying during the part when they were telling inactive people to come back to jehovah.
she now says she's going to be a regular auxillary pioneer and that she's not going to give up on serving jah now cause she's afraid she's going to die.

Quote from Giliad Graduation
by lostinthought inso loch made this gem of a quote on saturday: the "slave makes mistakes, truth is revealed progressivily.
our understanding changes and gets better" .
he also said that we know we have the "truth" because thousands are baptized but we should not only watch numbers..... ok, huge eye roll..

she was talking about some brother who since he has gotten married has been looking old and been growing a beard.

Birthday
by lostinthought inso today is my birthday.
one of my "worldy" friends invited me over his house cause he thought being alone on my birthday was horrible.
we all had ice cream sunday's and we played words with friends, nothing extravagant but a way to recognize that i was born today.

another "dream" thread
by lostinthought infirst of all let me say that dreams fascinate me and i really think that they can mean something, anyway, i am still living the jw life (doubts and all).
i have this friend who is not a jw and he told me that he had this really wired dream about me.
he said they shunned you, and i was like who shunned me and he said your people.
