i am trying to talk to a women at school i like.
i have emailed her but she did not respond back what i should i do?
i still get nervous around women..
Learn to be able to talk to anybody you see on the street: old lady, cute girl, old guy, young guy, talk to a persons dog. Relax, and listen to your inner self when you approach. Ideas will come up. Your subconscious is constantly sprouting ideas on basically everything. I have gotten to the point where i can easily blab tooooo much, if i let it go.

since i joined the forum i noticed more than a few people have not been posting, what is going on?
i received a couple of emails from other groups asking me to join their new forms with a promised technology, i wondered how they got my email address and thought it be strange.. .
people during the first year of a great change might post daily to any support chat or message board they feel is going to aid them.
I only ever saw leoliea treated well. There were some who attempted to challenge her. But, most always gave her adulation. She may have felt like she was presenting the same material, over and over. Many people have a view and will not change it, when faced w facts and solid, reasoned thinking. She does have a demanding job. It could be taking more of her time and effort. My 2 cents worth.

i bought a large container of strawberries.
my daughter is disfellowshipped.
may i consider it "necessary family business" to give her some of them to share with my grandchildren?
As a jw, you can only give strawberries to her if you didn't eat any of them. If you DID eat some, since your duaghter will also be eating them, you could be construed as eating together w an unbeliever. As you know, this is strictly forbidden in the holy scriptures. Remember that raymond franz was dffed for this this very sin.

red sky.
i woke up on the grass field.. i must have time traveled to this distant land.. i hear birds chirping, i feel the heavens moving and my god......... theres a fire in the sky.. .
i can't tell if the sun is break night or if the night is engulfing the sun.
I have floated, on my back in beautiful lake, looking up at beautiful sunset colors, directly above. I heard no sound, for the water in my ears blocked it. Its truly a selfless experience.

Thanks, df. Amen, is all i can say. Its nearly a prayer. Sunrises and sunsets are spiritual experiences.

so, i put this under 'social' ;) they aren't exactly sure how.. .
' having a neighborly chat improves seed germination, finds research in biomed central's open access journal bmc ecology.

I remember something like this , damanhur, on some tv program maybe a yr ago. It gave the cave complex a very positive spin. The place seems to have gotten a lot of positive publicity.

The Singing Plants at Damanhur appears to be part of a cult display - http://damanhurinsideout.wordpress.com/about/make-believe/ Damanhur seems to be a complex run by one guy who programs all the people who work there. Here is a first hand experience - http://universal-laws.hubpages.com/hub/THE-DREAM-VERSUS-THE-REALITY-OF-DAMANHUR

You have a pm. To make it work, you need to click it twice.

i want to purchase a couple of vintage watchtower publications to help in my helping jw's break free.
some of the older ones are expensive or hard to come by - i know you can buy them on cd's but i'd like to own one or two of the "classics of propaganda"- some of the ones that speak for themselves as to the ridiculousness of this religion.. of course any magazine i pick up today speaks to me of the ridiculousness, but you need something much more hardcore for the jw's.. any recommendations?.
"children" has some pretty good quotes in it..
Newer stuff has more impact on jws. They tend to view rutherford stuff as ancient history, thus of noninterest.
