  FARTING IN THE KINGDOM HALL.

  2. experiences

  i was lead to beleive that cleanlinness was next to godliness,that jehovah is a clean god, .

  as we as a family sat down behind ( being the operative word ) a couple of elderly sisters ,arriving late we took the only seats available,even then we caused disruption as we even i were fighting over the seats as to where one would sit ,sure enough i allways seemed to end up in the firing line of these elderly fat arsed sisters,whom allways ended up farting in your face,the smell was so strong that you could actualy taste the stench it in the air 10 minutes later,i allways felt sick ,my children grinning .

  how did you cope yourself

  Pioneering---Did It Make A Difference In Your Life

  many of us pioneered.

  some here pioneered as "vacation", "temporary", "auxillary", "regular" or even "special" roles.

  nearly everyone was expected to pioneer, if you were to stay in the good graces of the congregation.

  Hey Brummie and Lisa,

  Nice to see you on this thread :-)

  Anyway, I pioneered for 9 years.

  Like Brummie, I did enjoy it. Me and my wife helped six people come into the truth.

  The Negatives of it was that, even with this record, me and my wife STILL got hammered by elders and other pioneers for being "Phantom Pioneers."

  It bothered me because we were very sincere and hard working, but because we didn't always meet the status quo of meeting at 9 every morning. We probably met about 2 mornings a week and the rest were afternoons and studies in the evening.

  However, we were much more successful than any other pioneer in the cong - but we were still Phantom Pioneers in their eyes.

  The Positives is that to this day, is that I've learned to be tremendously productive. Maybe that's not totally good, because only recently I just learned how to smell the roses. But a pioneers schedule was so tight that I learned to make good use of time.

  Wild,

  Yes. It was almost one year to the date. Hmmm.

  I guess the thing that is confusing for me is that during that past year, there were some really good times. However, there was a patch of about 2 months where her personality totally changed.

  We discussed it and we narrowed it down to some medication she was taking (hormonal). Actually, interestingly enough, she took the hormones (perscribed by doctor) to get her period going again since she was on the pill for 10 years.

  During that stretch we were trying to have a baby. But ever time we would drink with friends, she would go into her tirade about me being a cheater.

  That didn't happen before that 2 month window. I mean, don't get me wrong, I took my lumps with her before that, but the problems were REALLY bad then.

  We talked it over, and we decided that the medication was the problem. She got off of it and then for about another 2 months, things were really fine and dandy.

  But then she up and left after I started doing my research on the Internet etc.

  So yeah, I could see your point. But it still confuses me because when she left, things - I though - was on the up swing.

  Sorry for your husband cheating on you. Your pain must be great. Thanks for your post.

  9 of 6,

  This is not a joke, but sorry if I don't believe in the mantra that you have to have a mourning period or you need time alone.

  If my wife leaves me for someone and won't return my calls or doesn't want to work it out, there's no badge of honor to be sad - when they aren't sad themselves.

  What's my other choice?

  Sit around and be miserable to prove I love her?

  If someone else is willing to be kind to me and I'm kind to them and it's romantic, then I think it's a good thing.

  You might need this one day, but the quickest way to get over a lost love is to find someone else to love.

  My wife isn't coming back, so excuse me if I decide to enter a new relationship.

  Thanks Brummie,

  I think to me is more like, "hey, we all make mistakes but we can get over it."

  Brum, I can't tell you how aweful it was for me when I first got removed as a pioneer. It was really hard to get over that.

  I think that's why my conscience leans more towards the "forgiving" side now a days.

  I appreciate you being there.

  Counsel has been strong, but good.

  Thanks Lisa.

  I've learned so much from these posts and appreciate your kind words.

  I feel like I'm just growing up so to speak. For the longest time I've lived my life based upon others.

  I feel free now. But free towards Christ.

  I've made my mistakes - fine. I'm ready to move on.

  Thank you so much Lisa. I wish I could tell you how much ((((((hug))))))) means to me.

  See LB,

  Just look at the post above mine from Wednesday.

  That's stuff that makes sense and a person could learn from.
