on weekend mornings i like to take my dog for a long walk at a nearby lake.
recently there's been some cultists and a propaganda cart posted up along my walking path.
until today i've ignored them.
I know what you mean about them invading your space.
i went to visit my mother in law (non jw) in the place she was living.. I saw the memorial flyers on the table, but I I didn’t say anything.. it did feel like an invasion!
she was the best though! She saw me spot them, got up from her puzzle, picked them all up, crushed them really good, and threw them away.
old light:.
"for the edges of the walls and ceiling, we plan to use a broad paint brush.
then, we will use rollers to paint the big surfaces.
But we are not painters. We are delivered a direct message from painters, you can’t handle it, but not “inspired” because sometimes we paint outside of the lines.. but we only do what the painters tell us..
i am semi estranged from my jw family.
i am interested in a relationship but it never works.. they aren’t interested at all so we just leave it like that.. i received a text from my half-sister yesterday saying “your dad has cancer, it’s bad, i don’t know anything” i figured there was more to the story and if my dad needed me to know anything he would tell me.
or not.. i spoke with my mom this morning.
I had a dream last night about my dad..
i had a cat for a long time. He died a few years ago. My dad and this cat were always frenemies. Dad would make him stay outside. Cat would get dirty paw prints all over his car. Dad would makes the dogs chase the cat..
so my dream.. my cat is in heaven at the gate just weaving in and out of the spokes, he can do that since he’s a cat..
my dad comes up and knocks (like he would knock on a door for preaching) and my cat looks at him and says “look who wants in now huh.”
lol it was sweet and funny.. not scary or sad.
the august monthly announcements letter, among other things, says that if a memorial is midweek, there is to be no midweek meeting and if at a weekend, then no weekend meeting.
previously it was only no other meeting on the same day.
is this because so many congregations now share halls that scheduling it has become almost impossible?.
How about it’s a cult an nothing they do will ever make sense lol

That’s one of the confusing things! I’m just learning how to act like a normal functional contributing member of society (pardon the pun) and now I feel like I’m getting sucked back into the family drama that i fought sooooo hard to get out of... how do I act like myself and visit my old world?

Thank you cofty. The worst reaction is an overreaction.
I should pray to Jehovah that he brings the new system quickly! 😉
