with a streak of pure luck I was given...a palm m130 pda, the keyboard to match it, a digital camera with like 4 picture cards. I was also given an INCREDIBLE leather bag...I have been having a hrd time not calling it a "briefcase" lol...the wonderful girlfriend got me the bag..thanx garfield. I think one of the best presents was the pix from my daughter...CHRISTMAS PIX! I got a warm fuzzy feeling from that.

moral dilemna
by zanex ini have been df'd for a good long time and have gone/going through the different stages of the healing process but i dont think that i am anywhere to giving up all of my deep-seated anger and hostility that i continue to have.
i have gotten attatched to it, ironically enough.
my moral and maybe somewhat ethical delimmna is: i am in a service provider position and i provide translation services for members of a specific community of interest...problem is that a certain person has come into my focus of the world...an elder.......a great many bones in my body want to manipulate and maneuver his life into the palm of my hand....then crush him.

ok...hmmm well...I think that it is ok. The only real problem is that this elder happens to know my dad. Sigh..nothin good seems ot come out of these random witness contacts...I got through it tho...the damn thing is that he actually asked me if I would be willing to come back and interpret for him more later....he tried to askl if i would be interested in a bible study...I almost laughed. Maybe the term "falling out of my chair" would be a better pphrase to use. I talked to my boss and I have been taken off of that particular individual unless he specifically requests me. I am doin ok tho i think. Once I started looking at him as a plain less than average human the power of the word "elder" kind of became a joke...it was rather odd actually but it worked.

Who has HELPED YOU grow?
by jst2laws inthank you for your encouragement.
i was so impressed when my wife called and told me i was mentioned on the jwd thread "who are the smartest posters here".
http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.aspx?id=42252&site=3 i felt bad for the truly smart posters on the board who were linked in any way with the likes of me, and disappointed that not enough credit was given to those as oldhippy, janh, norm, kent, hilarystep, larc, pathofthorns, jt, and hawkaw all who should have been listed near the top with the others identified.

I think EVERYONE here has made a big impact on my growth post-jw life...two who jump to mind are spaznik and LDH are two that, I think, have made an impact...EVERYONE else here has given me a WHOLE lot too..I hate to name names when this whole board has been a big part of me...

by Yizuman inanyone have any idea what the exact numbers there are with deaf jws?

zanex
yiz: that information is possibly within my grasp...as my pop is still a very much deaf practicing elder...(restrains gagging reflex) sorry bout that..hard to believe sometimes thats all...anyway, I am fairly sure that that number is drastically high actually...sad to say...I'll do what I can...

jg: yah I suppose that it is more the organization as opposed to the individuals that deserve the anger that I feel. It is just frustrating sometimes...
dia: tact has never been MY thing either but your idea sounds pretty amusing. I think I like it. Definitely worth a try...
scully: yah thats right..he wouldnt think twice about going somewhere else if he knew I was df'd..I do wish Icould screw around with the interpreting but grrr damnnit professional ethics are stupidly restraining sometimes...thanx...that last word..mensch...I know that word...is the word patryn familiar to you? I may be wrong but hey its worth a try..
spaz: spaz, spaz , spaz,....ya always got somethin good to say...yah it is that thought of what my daughter would do without me sane enough to take care of her that makes me stop and go WAIT. I dunno..it just sometimes seems like it would be so easy to just crush this one insignificant little bug of a elder and let go of that anger..but I wonder if that would be successful...it might just make it worse...at any rate...trying to think of him as just a man is a suggestion worthy of an attempt..I'll give it a hack...
kingpawn: ya know somethin..? the possible consequences for messin with this guy are NOT worth it....but damnned if I stop thinkin bout it...(sinister chuckle)

dakta: I did like that story...just HAVING the power to wreak havoc on their lives is something that does give me some type of satisfaction...maybe i can contain it to that...
simon: hmmm ya know for a great many years I thought that there could be no greater pleasure than to manipulate as many jws as I possibly could....I wonder what those years have cost me. You said, "Leaving and being happy, living a normal life is getting back at them plenty" a normal life...I wish I could say that I knew what 'normal' life was. You make a good point but they took from me,that knowledge of WHAT a 'normal' life was.

nelly: u have a lot of faith that I will do the RIGHT thing...you sound as if you have released yerself of a lot of that resentment and anger that seems to predominantly exist within those that have left THAT organization, I am envious. who knows I may just leave the guy alone...I havent really decided yet...
yeru: hmmm gettin up close and personal would seriously test my resolve to not wrack chaos on him...I dunno...I dont have the faith in my "good side" that nelly seems to have...i havent a clue what I am gonna do...I'll keep goin to the assg's and see what happens...who knows!
