hi there
welcome to JWD
ok everyone...i am new.. i don't know what to say....just hello.. i am a disfellowshipped jehovah's witness...which maybe one day i will get in detail about....but right now it's still too painful.. besides if i talk about it i feel like i am talking bad about people or hindering jehovah's spirit with others.
i realy try to shy away from speaking badly of people...even if they hurt me.. what i believe in my heart is no one can truely hurt you if your standing with the creator is good in his eyes.they in reality hurt only themselves,because they hinder thier relationship with our maker.. i do not like to talk bad about any religious group realy because, i think what if jehovah some how aproved of them and then i am introuble!.
i can't remember where the scripture is but it is about the apostles and the advice was to let them go....and if they were from god then you know....but if they weren't then it would end...thier preaching and basically god would take care of them.. i feel jesus could say the things he did of religious leaders because,well.....he is th son of god and these people claimed to represent his dad.

i resumed my smoking habit about a year before i left the borg.
i've been on and off of cigarettes since that time.
i'm trying to quit (again).
I quit smoking by switching to copenhagen, havent had the urge to
smoke since
well it's thanksgiving today.. yes today is the day families get together and enjoy the company of those we love.. if you are an apostate as we are....this isn't the case.
today our witness families and friends will be getting together and eating a big turkey dinner also....they always do.
are you sad today of the reminder that this religion has broke this relationship?
alone......and bored out of my mind

i am a single sister and currently live in tx.
i am very interested in meeting a brother with whom i can share the truth with.
i work a lot and often i find that there is no one to share my beliefs and feelings with.
SO EX JW'S BECOME RACIST TOO
no.....not me anyway.....I hate everyone EQUALLY
remember going to conventions during the mid 80's?
sisters all dolled up in lolly-wrapper dresses of sparly taffeta with balloon sleeves and brothers strutting about with shiny grey siuts with narrow lapels and black leather ties?
ooooh what a look that was!
I would have to say the "miami vise' suit collection i once owned
travel with us across the pond as trading spaces meets changing rooms for an international redecorating challenge!
andy's got his hands full on this show, building a wall of closet doors for hildi's child bedroom, and a box of drawers for under the bed in gen's master bedroom.
we don't get much help from the weather 90 mile per hour gusts of wind knock over our work tent and threaten to send us into overtime.
I always love when you can tell the home owners are 'pretending'
they like what they see
hi there buffman welcome to JWD
there have been a couple of postings lately about long assemblies.. does anyone remember these, or maybe even attended them?.
i was just a young child in the early 70's and something tells me i remember a long assembly, but don't remember if it was 8 days.. how long were they exactly, and what times.
what the hell did they talk about???.
They were all 4 days when i was a kid, I remember becomming
so bored once, that i would ' time' the prayers on my watch.
I remember one final Sunday, that the closing prayer lasted
28 min 43 seconds that is a lifetime when your're a kid
waiting for the thing to get over
yep, less then a month.
okay, okay, i know we haven't even gotten thru thanksgiving yet, but my inner child is getting excited about it.
but my inner child is getting excited about it.
question is Karla...has your inner child been naughty or nice?
