You find true joy
and happiness in life
when you give
and give
and go on giving
and never count the cost

just a bit of fluff...what's your favourite men's cologne or women's perfume scent?.
have you ever got a gentle wiff of a really nice cologne and wanted to ask the owner what the name of it is??
if its a woman i will ask, only because i want to go out and buy some.
for me I like Realm
for him I like Cool Water
but my favorite is....
Realm + Cool Water + sweat from the both of us = very happy spice

ok...simon with his guess the song lyrics inspired me to do one for movies..... you can post your fave movie quote and see if anyone can guess it.
no home movies or indie please (unless its really well-known).
plus if you want you can put what genre it is...... i have one to start us out:.
Heres some more....
a. Don't matter. Brains'll only get you so far and luck always runs out.
b. I'm the Marcia f*cking Brady of the Upper East Side and sometimes I want to kill myself for it. So there's your psychoanalysis, Doctor Freud. Now are you in or are you out?
c. Six f*ckin' car lengths. That's a hundred and six f*ckin' feet, mister! If I had to stop suddenly, you woulda hit me. I want you to get a f*ckin' driver's manual, and I want you to study that motherf*cker. And I want you to obey the the goddamn rules! Fifty-f*ckin' thousand people were killed on the highway last year 'cause of f*ckin' assholes like you. Tell me you're gonna get a manual!
d. See, that's the difference between you and me, and why you live here and I'm just passing through.
e. Hey! What'd you do to the world?
then .. Turned it off.
and no cheating by searching on the internet!.
a man my age is very young so i'm told.
why do i feel so old.
Got a few more for ya!
a. Now that the smoke is gone and the air is all clear
b. I dont believe that Elvis is dead
c. I can be cruel I don't know why..
why can't my balloon stay up in a perfectly windy sky
d. I am smelling like a rose that somebody gave me on my birthday deathbed
e. Music loud and women warm, I've been kicked around since I was born.
child shares milk with 'holy' temple rats
a child has been sharing milk from a bowl with a group of "holy" rats at an indian temple.. hundreds of rats live undisturbed at the karni mata hindu temple in deshnoke, rajasthan.. .
it's known locally as "rat temple".. the high priests protect the rats because their bodies are thought to house the souls of dead worshippers.. there are special holes allowing the rats to move around the temple.. it's said if you spot a white rat, you'll have good luck.
I'm an Amos Witness.
Heh...We can call ourselves Amosists.....
wanna join Mango?
I love Tori....She just moves me...she's soo beautiful
except I really don't like her with rats crawling on her..oh well
my favorite line in that song is...Do you need a woman to look after you?

I know I saw something similiar in a Tori Amos video...cant think of which one it was...was it Cucify or God...
anybody know?
i'm absolutely disgusted as what the gb members are letting go on inside the organization with regards to pedophiles, but i guess it shouldn't come as any great surprise after all the other crap they've pulled over the years.. one can only assume that their sheer arrogance and/or stupidity in their "we can't do anything without two witnesses" policy, is a sign that they're either possessed or they're all getting collective alzheimers disease.......it's ridiculous to pretend that child abuse doesn't go on in the congregations - it goes on in every single religious organization on earth, simply because you have imperfect people in every single religious organization on earth.. if child molesters within the congregation were pursued with the same gusto and enthusiasm as those that buy lottery tickets or question doctrines, they'd be doing something.
one can only assume that none of the governing body members have any children (thank god!
) or they'd never come up with such a stupid policy.
((((Mary))))
Welcome to the forum!
i am sitting here reading posts & trying to decide how to leave the organization.
i really left years ago- but three years ago got reinstated because my dad was dying of cancer- and needed to be around him.
(great reason, eh?
I was never baptised so I can't really relate but I do believe you have the strengh somewhere deep down inside you that will allow you to be who you need to be.
My mother for all the crap I got growing up layed off a bit when I turned 18. I think the nicest thing she ever said to me was "I am glad you are not pretending to be something you aren't". This of coarse totally surprised me. Now and again she will ask if I want to read the newest magazine. I used to politely tell her that I didn't have the time. Now I simply say that I don't want to.
All in all...deep down they will respect you for being your own person (even if they won't admit it). Not to mention that you will respect yourself much more when you are.
I wish you strengh and luck with how you decide to follow through with this difficult situation and wish I was able to offer you more than just words of encouragement. But I have faith in you.
