  hey who here as a kid added little embelishments to the wtbt publications?

  a real favourite was drawing in arrows and spears on the guys on the inside cover of the song book.

  you know the ones clutching both hands to their chest as they sang their hearts out....well all of mine were actually clutching at an arrow that was sticking out of their chest.

  What Makes us so Special

  today at my son's nursery school parents were invited to a harvest festival.. all the children brought in a contribution (tin of soup, fruit,veg), a local minister came in and talked to the kids about how seeds grow into food (but not tins of soup), and how we should be grateful for our food and then they sang a few songs they had learnt, basically they had fun.

  there was nothing particularly religious about it apart from the minister being there.. there were children of all different religions there including my son as i could not see the harm in allowing him to stay and join in.. however there were some other witnesses there to collect their children so they would not be a part of it which is their choice and i respect it but i was given alot of disapproving looks and some people completly ignored me.. was it really so wrong to allow my 3 year old (who really has no concept of religion) to join in and have fun and not be made to feel different and left out?.

  also the food which was contributed was later going to be distributed to the elderly and infirm in the community - what is more useful to them, a box of food or a watchtower.. .

  The great crowd

  just been watching the olympics.remember the opening ceremony with all the lights and fire works and stuff.and when all the athletes finally marched into the arena, looking all triumphant and joyful.the first thing i thought of, was all those pic's in wt literature, of that multi-racial great crowd marching on up to mount of jehovah.maybe the opening ceremony is a glimpse of what armageddon is going to be like for all the wt faithful.of course, theres going to a couple billion dead bodies strewn everywhere, and lots of blood, but other than that, i think the opening ceremony captured the moment real well.too bad i aint gunna be there.

  all those buzzards and vultures will be picking my carcass bare.... hey, what about the 4 by 100 mens relay for swimming.didn't the u.s. absolutely suck on that one!!!!!!!!.

  who thinks marilyn jones is on drugs btw????????...ah!

  "You Can Be Happy No Matter What"?

  by AhHah in

  2. friends

  in my response to path's post "it's been kind of dead around here lately", i mentioned a book written by richard carlson, ph.

  d. entitled "you can be happy no matter what".. i am wondering if anyone else has read it or one of his "don't sweat the small stuff" books -- if so, what did you think of it?.

  it helped me put some things in a good perspective and has helped me to take responsibility for and control of my thinking and my feelings so that i have more control of when i feel happy.

  thought dating and marriage was tough in the year 2000...well just check out what david had to go through.. david wants to marry michal, sauls daughter.so whats he have to do?.

  samuel 18:25-28. at that saul said: "this is what you men will say to david, "the king has delight, not in marriage money, but in a hundred foreskins of the philistines".

  so david rose and struck down among the philistines two hundred men, and came bringing their foreskins and giving them in full number to the king to form a marriage alliance with the king.. lol
