there is no typical jw personality type.. any of us who were in the religion for a number of years will remember all sorts of individuals.
there is as much variety among jws as there is in the general population.
some were arrogant and judgemental but others were humble and kindly.
Angst is an excellent word.
You often hear it coupled with "teenage" because they are such difficult years.
Those who never progress beyond their "teenage angst" seem to be attracted to the cult.
Those who are born-in never see the modeling to progress beyond such a pessimistic view of the world.
They are a group of emotionally stunted adolescents, or that's what it feels like when I'm around them.
in an effort to reduce the number of posts, this year i will try to add links to this post.
now, on with the leaks & releases!

Deleteandrestart, self-flagellation, indeed.
This is quite masochistic. Some people get off on that stuff.
I really think it is sexual sublimation
may 2, 2016 to all congregations in the united states branch territory re: entrance time at regional conventions.
Oh, that reminds of the horror of having seats in the middle of the aisle.
When you have to exit the row to use the restroom, is the polite way facing away or facing toward the people you are trying to squeeze in front of?
If you face toward them, it feels awkward, but if you face away, you pretty much stick your butt in their face!
This always produced some lively conversation and was never quite settled!
Were you a face in-ner or a face out-er?
i remember many years back a fellow ministerial servant saying this to me.
he felt that even if jehovah’s witnesses were not the only true religion, the regimented routine of meetings and field service and the strict rules and enforcement provided a beneficial structure for his life.
at the time i thought if this wasn’t “the truth”, i’d have no need for all that “structure”.
It's true; some people need more structure than others. You see that in the classroom from a really young age.
You also expect progress on that front, too. For example, independent use of checklists or daily organizers is the goal, though, in the meantime, it might require daily signatures from parents and teachers. By middle school, only selected students should still need this kind of help.
If you're an adult and still haven't learned how to provide structure to yourself, you might join a highly structured cult...or you may decide to join thd military...or you may just decide to get a 9-5 job.
One of the privileges of adulthood is you get to choose. But, know yourself, first. Know what you are good at and know what you still need help with.
But, choose a positive option.
"I'm in a cult cause I need structure," doesn't cut it.
friends,.
watch this jw.org video with "helper" david schafer.
the topic is care for your parents.
ok, ok, so the actual title of the article released today on jw-org is "young people askshould i get a tattoo?

Yes, Teresa, you will regret that beard years later.
Just say no to steroids, ladies.
a few posters on here live in fort mcmurray, canada where there is a devastating fire.
one at least has lost her home and beloved dog.
thinking of you all.
So sorry to hear of this.
There's a really helpless feeling when you face a natural disaster. We've faced several hurricanes and it's terrifying as you watch it barrel down on you and there's nothing you can do but flee...and then wait it out.
My condolences on losing a pet. They are members of the family and heartbreaking to lose.
My kind thoughts are with all affected.
the extraordinarily high pollen count has finally done me in.
i started with head congestion and coughing on friday and have steadily felt worse.
i now have an earache and a heavy feeling in my chest.. yes, i do have a doctor's appointment for tomorrow, as i'm sure the advice would be!
Nonjwspouse, okay, I understand the local honey thing now. It's because the bees are making the honey from the local flora and that is what you're allergic to?
Mini allergy shots, that is funny!
