Where else could I go and pretend that I was really, really talking with Jesus Christ (and not be committed)?

I have a ten second rule: if it hasn't been on the ground or keyboard for more than ten seconds, it's good to go!

I hate a good book because...
by Beck_Melbourne in* i just can't put it down...i considered threading it on a chain and hanging it around my neck...saves me carrying it everywhere and some books don't quite fit inside my hand bag.
* i get annoyed when we get visitors because i have to tear myself away to entertain - what a drag - i have been known to sneak off to the 'powder room' just to continue reading...i get in big trouble when i do this.
* i think about the characters all day and wonder how they are doing lol...can't wait to get home from work to catch up with them again...geez i'm a meathead!

I hate a good book because when I have finished the last page, there is a huge gap in my life. The story and characters have become a part of me and then they are gone.

DID YOU EVER LEARN anything because you were a JW?
by minimus inwas there ever anything positive from being a witness?

I had a horrible fear of public speaking. I wanted to kill myself rather than give my first talk. I cried. I prayed to God to take this cup from me. I practiced my talk over and over. It was the hardest thing for me to do to get up there and deliver it. But, I did. And, I learned I could do things that I was afraid of doing. So, being a witness made me brave.
I had a true, beautiful friend when I walked away. I miss her and it was difficult for me not to answer her last e-mail to me. But, I didn't. She really was a true friend of mine.
When I was out in service, there were times I honestly felt like I was showing love to others. And, I believed that God loved me and was shining down on me.
As a witness, I didn't smoke, drink to excess, have sex, masturbate as much or get attacked as I have been by a couple of people I have met at exjw boards.
I really wish that they had been IT, THE TRUTH, because the disappointment I feel right now is very great. And I agree with what someone else wrote, I learned to not follow men or man-made religions, so I won't be disappointed like this again.

JW's who were in the towers
by DanTheMan ini don't know if anyone has posted similar thoughts to this, but i've been thinking about this off and on over the past year.. i understand that a dozen or so jw's lost their lives in the 9/11 massacre.
since then, i've often wondered to myself what may have been going through their minds during these frightful moments (if they weren't among the lucky ones who died instantly).
did they think armageddon had come, and, as they lay dying in the smoke and ashes and chaos, did they think that they were dying at jah's hand, because they hadn't done enough?

That's the thing about death: when you die, you only have to go through it once. We, the living, think of the deaths of others, especially those who touched our lives, over and over. I think that they are better off than we are. I think that things are going to get much worse. I also feel that it is natural to think about what goes through the minds of people who are close to death.
I agree that, if these victims were thinking that Jehovah was judging them worthy of death at that moment, it is just another reason for disliking the 'jw way'....bad enough to have to face death without thinking that God has condemned you.

MORE BAD NEWS FOR ME......
by Mary inwell i went to the cancer clinic yesterday, where i was told not only do i have endometrial cancer, i also have a rare form of it called clear cell cancer.
apparently, it's a very aggressive cancer and has a tendancy to spread towards the lymph nodes.. i was absolutely stunned when then told me this one..........yep, i don't smoke, do drugs, i'm not a drunk and i don't screw around and yet i get cancer.. i really would like to try the gerson therapy clinic in california, but it's $4,900.00 us per week........so with the conversion from canadian dollars, it would be about $8,000/week and i'd need to be there for at least 3 weeks.
anyone have about $25,000 i can borrow?

Will they grow Hemp in that Paradise garden?
by kenpodragon ini was thinking today about that paradise garden the witness always pictured.
i remember all those happy blank faces, with the rosy cheeks and content look.
they were all smiling eating a apple, petting a lion, and running around the trees.

Rebound Relationships
by onacruse ini really don't know where to start with this....it's so personal, and i'm so confused.
when i left bethel, i was a basket case, and married my first wife while i was still in mental/emotional limboland.
i loved her from the bottom of my heart (as best i can imagine what that means), and meant what i promised "till death do us part.

((((ona)))) I agree with what's been said...why rush things?.
Some people have a need to be in a relationship. I used to be like that. I used to be desperate for love, feeling that it was all I needed to be happy. Ona, I am honestly happier than I have been in a long time because I'm not looking for my Prince Charming anymore. The goofy thing is that I am attracting some very nice men now, without even trying.You may be better off getting to know and love yourself first, if this relationship of yours doesn't work out.
It's really wonderful being single, being your own person. Don't expect too much out of people and they may surprise you. Learn to have fun, alone, and with that special someone! Life's too short, Sweetie.
