The wife and I support a few local charities and do RAC's or random acts of kindness. This has been good for our situation but we also do a hell of a lot more "sitting in the sun" so to speak. Getting our weekends back to make breakfast or going for a nice drive has made the both of us much happier.

Taking up a Cause
by OnTheWayOut inso recently, my jw wife asks me if i ever considered taking up a cause.it was a question out of the blue, coming off of a discussion about politics.
so while it was unsaid, she was really getting at whether i was considering being politically active in some way.. i already have a standard answer that i have used before with other people, so i said it.
"no, i will be content to work and get by then retire and sit in the sun with a good book and a cold water.

Jehovah God is Real
by TakeOffTheCrown inthere are many on this site that do not believe that jehovah truly exists; that he is not a real being.
but, he is as real as next breath you draw into your nostrils.. some of you say that there is no evidence that he exists.
yet, none of you can prove that he does not exits.. cofty, (you come to mind), i appreciate that you have stated, without reservation, that you do not believe that god exists.. yet, you cannot prove it.. hope in jehovah..

God isn't real so he doesn't see what I write and I don't pray to something that doesn't exist. That's called "a waste of time."

And you cannot prove that Jehovah DOES exist.
Anyways, I breath through my mouth.

Here's what you do. Don't show up for the meeting. Then an elduuur will just do the assignment for you. Do that 3 or so more times and you'll never have to worry about an assignment again.

Great comments. I love how they blame the children if they do not take to WTS thinking. Then they throw in 1Corinthians 3:6. If God is all powerful AND wants all people to come and serve HIM, shouldn't his making a person grow work on ALL people?

Those ass emblies are so draining on the soul. The people there would be so happy to be "taught by Jehovah" but rush out of there like a madden herd of bulls after the final prayer, only to be in silence all the way home. What a crappy way to spend the weekend. Endless recounting of the same nonsense over and over and OVER again, each ass embly being the same as the last just spun differently to match their crappy theme.
Sorry for your wife zeb. That sucks that she feels the need to subject her brain to that mental jump roping. Hopefully she got a little nap during the shortened Watchtower.

I've been embarrassed so many times!
by stillin ini was kind of proud to go out in field service, most of the time.
important message, straight from god to their doors, right?.
but if you met with the group and didn't have previous arrangements, you could end up with the village idiot for a companion.

The pickins became slim in my service group before we left The Borg. Either they were too old and crusty to go d2d or they were crazy and made trouble for the householder. We even had one who unfortunate for her had frequent seizures and was seriously scary to work with. I felt bad for her but at the same time she had no business doing the work. Top it off she never took her seizure meds so it was very stressful to have her in your group.
One old brother was "old school" and he would start his presentation with, "Do you wanna die?" The conversation that ensued was lovely.
We lived near a small city with quite a few creeps and weirdos so many came in to "da truuf" from that area. So many creeps.....

I hope everyone's dinner was fantastic!
We had such a great day! I made gluten free pancakes and sausage and scrambled eggs for breakfast. My wife made gluten free yellow cake with chocolate frosting and no-bake cookies.
Dinner was amazing! Turkey with all the fixins with wonderful family and friends. Then my aunts friend sang a few songs she wrote and played guitar for us. Can't believe we have been missing out on this for so many years.
