  2. friends

  i have been having discussion with my sister (relative), who is an active witness, about writing a letter of disassociation.

  the reason being is that i have not attended the meetings in over a year and it's been 4 years since i have went out in the jw ministry.. i going to try to sum this topic up.

  my sister think that i should not da myself because i have not done any immoral act in her thinking.

  i'm wondering if you still attend meetings?

  do you hold out hope for the watchtower organization?

  if you've left entirely, have you found another form of worship?

  "i bring you glad tidings ...".

  on the inside it reads:.

  Serious Question

  by Prisca in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  as we all know the society has very strict guidelines regarding conduct between the sexes.

  in the cong i grew up in, it was so small-minded that if you were single, and seen talking to a member of the opposite sex, you were presumed to be in some sort of relationship with him/her.. sex before marriage is out of the question, with heavy petting also looked down upon.

  dating is a serious affair, with all onlookers expecting engagement/marriage to be the outcome.

  1. social
  2. physical

  i just wanted to share with everyone a fun way to get fit.. i discovered the joys of boxing!!

  there is a boxing gym not to far from where i live so i joined up one day about 3 months ago and let me tell you-i've never had so much fun working out.

  it is a great way to release built up anger or frustrations and to get into shape.
