hello friends.
i have been away from the forum for a while and just wanted to drop in to say a quick hi to all.. i was looking through some of the posts and remembering how i felt a couple of years ago when my entire family walked away from the borg, and the reasons for leaving.
there was so much hurt and sadness, confusion and anger, and of course fear!.
Oh guys............you are all so sweet!
while reading your responses i remembered why i love being here so much, how i've missed you all and how much you all mean to me.
i won't be gone for so long again and i look forward to catching up with you all on chat or through posts.
Love ya all..................big hugs.

sunday night..................it's on again!.
every year my family keeps tradition and we watch hours of hilariously bad/not so bad european pop music.
from remote places like estonia to malta and germany, it's on for young and old.. we usually invite fellow esc fans/friends and we consume good wine, watch the show and have a fun night.. abba launched into their career by winning eurovision in 1974 with 'waterloo'.. here is the web site.......................enjoy.
Am I a gay man?
Sorry..........................can't answer that..................LOL
Terry use to do the commentary but we have our own guys now.
One thing I don't get is why is Israel in it and not Italy??????????? Go figure. I still love it.
What do you think of some of the gear they get into? Hilarious fashion statements hey!
Cheers, Bliss

i have to admit that we gave our first two kids 'hebrew' names.
i don't want to identify my children online but suffice to say that we had at least some sense in that we opted for safe names of the samuel and daniel type - no melchizedeks!.
however, in our city we had a javan a samson [gen 10:2] and even a zechariah!
My kids got their names before i was a dub. the boys got bible names but nothing outrageous, and being italian/australian they work either way. my daughter has a beautiful italian name, but it is a derivative of a bible name.

Hello friends. I have been away from the forum for a while and just wanted to drop in to say a quick hi to all.
I was looking through some of the posts and remembering how I felt a couple of years ago when my entire family walked away from the borg, and the reasons for leaving. There was so much hurt and sadness, confusion and anger, and of course FEAR!
Now my life has moved on. Time has worked it's magic and now I feel my life has swerved back on track. My family is much more at peace and united. The kids are living their lives, making their mistakes etc, but I'm there for them enjoying a relationship with them and loving them no matter what. I go to birthday parties and celebrate mine and my family's. I have dinners, go to the movies, enjoy the company of my friends, am free from judging my 'associations' and I just accept people. I don't worry about how I'm using my time and how I view money. I'm still the same person I was before the borg, just a few scars...............thank god for vitamin E...............LOL.
I just wanted to share a bit of positive and hope with you. For anyone out there who feels like things are never going to be right in life because of the effects of the WTS...............don't feel helpless or lost. Look for the light and joy in life, it is there. Time is a great healer and allow people who can assist in your healing to touch your life. We all need eachother in some way...........who knows who will help you and in turn who you may help.
I don't mean to sound preachy...............just feeling happy and wanting to share it.
Cheers all, Bliss
my mother told me that the co gave a talk on how a spider spins his web and it can take a very long time for the web to be made but just like that--- before you know it---it can catch its prey and devour it.
it's the same with the world wide web, the internet.
there are reports, according to the co, that in new york, a very prominent "anointed" man was disfellowshipped and he has his owm website where he has answered many jws questions.
Araneae, Spiders of North-West Europe
Nederlandse versie
This site contains more than 700 pictures of over 220 spiders commonly found in NW-Europe, especially the area between the Netherlands and the south of France.
There is a thumbnail page and a Spider location chart for a quick overview of all the spiders posted on these pages. Of all photographed spiders, there is a short description about their habitat, size and other interesting facts. Apart from the European spiders I have also posted more than 200 pictures of Australian spiders.
Most people think that spiders are dangerous creatures that should be wiped away with a cloth, sucked up in the vacuum cleaner or smashed with a newspaper. That is not wise because spiders play a very important role in our Eco-system. They catch many annoying and harmful insects and are therefore very useful creatures. As you will see on these pages, many of the spiders are beautifully colored, and therefore very pleasant and wonderful to look at. Since most spiders are very small, you need a magnifying glass or a camera to study them or to reveal their beauty.

yes, well we know why the WTS would want to do that!

Ah yes, apostates together with the internet are VERY USEFUL CREATURES!

hi guys,.
feeling a little lonely on here.
any aussies out there?.
Hey Nat..............I'm Aussie too. WELCOME
PM me if you want. Otherwise we will catch up here on the forum ok!
I knew an elder originally from Perth.........I can understand why people over there feel lonely, if he's anything to go by! But you'll make friends here for sure. Actually there are quite a few Aussies from WA.
Cheers, Bliss
i notice a lot of anti-jehovah's witenesses post here so i will speak my peace.
2 peter 3:3 .
"for you know this first, that in the last days there will come ridiculers with their ridicule, proceeding according to their own desires" .
most of the people here have already been used and abused by the WTSTS already. Really don't need any more of it please.
I agree 100%..................................
and the WTS protects pedophiles like many other churches, I know 1st hand. It is NO BETTER!
I come to this forum for support, comfort and empathy, something I got in 5 minutes...............something I NEVER got in 12 years in the WTS. Even after my child was sexually abused. So go to the meetings where you can hear the sound of your own voice over the PA system, where you may receive some appreciation for your self-righteous comments. Where you can feel like a martyr for missing out on healthy activities and making ALL those sacrifices for Jehovah.
Worry about yourself and let us look after ourselves....................do you think we haven't heard what you have to say BEFORE?????????? You are dealing with intelligent, enlightened people who have experienced the WTS.............it's corruption and lies.
So please don't insult us by preaching to us!
Cheers, Bliss
Hi Purple...............so how was the weather up north? We are heading off this Thursday. Going to Port Macquarie/Ellenborough/Gold coast and Noosa. I heard it's been a bit wet but I'm hoping it will get better by the time we get there.
Welcome back girlfriend!
