  "Slaving For Jehovah Is Great, Because Your Life Won't Go Wrong." Sigh...

  granted, i'm a pimo status, so i normally just play on my cell phone and ignore everything during meetings and assemblies.

  but at the assembly this past weekend, my ears were pricked for two experiences of two sisters dedicating themselves to pioneering.

  this was probably because i was extremely freaked out by both of them.

  yup, you read right.

  despite other personal turmoil that needs to be addressed, my family has decided to go nuts over halloween decorations being "too close" to our yard.

  a new family just moved in next door; their kids are super young.

  Never Thought I'd Say This, But I've Found Something to Look Forward to in the Meetings

  by Sorry in

  my therapist inspired me to start looking on the bright side.

  even though i've pretty much given up listening to the bs and usually tune out the meeting by playing on my phone/tablet, i find the local needs talk oddly fascinating.

  probably because it's the only part that doesn't seem outlined to death (at least at our hall), and you truly don't know what you get.

  think of your favorite tv shows.

  what do they all have in common?

  the answer is they revolve around some type of problem or conflict.

  Did Anyone Else Have a Non JW Relative That They Celebrated Christmas With?

  2. experiences

  as strict as my parents are, this was an area i had (still do) leeway with.

  my mother's side of the family are non witnesses, and since we rarely have opportunities to see each other, my parents let me and my siblings see them during christmas break.

  our aunts and uncles spoil us silly with gifts.

  i don't want to seem like a jerk.

  i know full well economic times are not the greatest.

  there's no shame in struggling and staying with your family until you're back on your feet.

  for the last few months, i feel like i've been going through the 5 stages of grief.

  lately, it's been happening simultaneously.

  disclaimer: while this may be a sensitive topic to some, i don't wish to offend anyone.

  please don't turn this into a political discussion with name calling and yelling.

  i can see why the borg hates higher education.
