early this morning, i was stopped at a service station dealing with a mechanical issue with my motorcycle.
i was approached by 2 young men who pro-offered some of your reading material.
i deeply regret that i was very unkind; in actual fact, i was quite mean in my response to them.
I once had a guy pull a shotgun on me while in service because they df'd his daughter and made her suicidal. He pointed it at my feet and told me to GTF off his property. I consider what he did a kindness because it really shook me up to the emotional grief this religion causes people.
JWs have thick skin and I'm sure they were quick to visualize the OP being blasted with burning hail for rejecting their message.

Beef Stroganof? Thanks for the great idea! That's what we'll have for dinner tonight.
the united nations will shortly announce global peace and security.
this will result in the attack on the true religion [ jehovah's witnesses ] lead by pope francis and intern will bring armageddon / paradise.
please brothers and sisters share this information with everyone!
ray franz who gave us insight into the gb due to a crisis of conscience was an absolute moron, with absolutely no critical thinking skills whatsoever like all of us have.
i mean, to have a conscience based on some magic man in the sky.. how stupid can you be?
in search of christian freedom?
this may sound insane but i literally have blood on my hands as i have just come home from a counselling session that went wrong...i wanted to collate all that has happened and record it...hospital policy is against it.
i said "what am i alive for then if not to tell the truth" she tut tutted and i walked out sadly in despair.. when i got to the ground floor there was a young girl screaming her head off.
she was afraid, that is all she was...........afraid.
You are a hero! Well done!
I wish I could have gotten there on time too. Recently this summer I found the naked body of a man who had apparently committed suicide in a river. It was pretty traumatizing. I wish I could have done something to help...
as some of you might have read last week, my mother had extremely low hemoglobin and without it, she would have died.
i have somehow managed to bring her to reason and accept the transfusion.
it saved her life.
This is the kind of creepshow shit (the elders' conduct) that I want the outside world to see and hear. It's time for this cult to take some responsibility and accountability for its abusive, bullying nature.
Please send your mother our love and give her a big hug from all of us. She is a living celebration of life!
i've been lurking on the board for almost a year now and i think i'm ready to come out of hiding (although, i'm so nervous as i type this).
i'm not ready to share everything about my story, but the basics are that i'm a born-in, elder's kid, baptized as a teenager because i was tired of hearing people ask me "all your friends are baptized, when are you going to get baptized?
", married an unbeliever (was df, but came back shortly after) and we have two kids.
gardening is my physical activity thing.
i like to have a productive garden but dot it with a bit of pretty.
the front lawn is around 40m2 and i am converting it to potager this year.
This group of rocks symbolizes a waterfall where the water flows from the corner on downward into the riverbed, emptying into the area around the water basin. It's called "karetaki" or dry waterfall cascade. The stones hopefully give depth and visual appeal to the garden. I installed the bamboo fence behind it to cover the ordinary walls and give the garden an Asian feel to it.

This is a stone water basin (tsukubai) that I put in at the end of the dry river bed. It was traditionally used for rinsing ones hands before engaging in the tea ceremony. No tea garden is complete without it and a stone lantern hiding shyly in the ferns.

This is the Kyoto style inner courtyard garden I made at the back of the
house. It is surrounded by four walls and is about 10 meters by 5
meters. before it was nothing but a space with pea stone laid down.
Bringing in the plants, trees, river stones and stone water basin was
hard work! I planted in a cherry blossom (sakura) tree as well as a bay
leaf, Japanese maple and camphor tree. Getting the moss to take took
time and patience as well. The rocks glisten beautifully on a rainy day.
