i think most people are unfamiliar with why certain people behave the way they do.
most people lable those who are quite different as the rest as nutty, strange, plain nuts.
(i'm guilty as the rest)

i thought id give you an update re whats going on.
my qing the wts of recent has been very hard on my wife.
if i could, i would change my timing of doing so, but its just the way it has happened.
My thoughts are with both of you. You are a VERY good husband Winston Smith. You obviously care for your wife a great deal.
Having suffered from clinical severe depression myself I can say that your wife, the woman you fell in love with is there, just under the surface .. struggling with the torment of feelings and numbness this desease inflicts. I am sure with professional help she will come out of this a much stronger person for it. I can say this because I did.
This experience with the Elder brought tears to my eyes, for men that are suppose to show great love and understanding of the sheep .. they didn't show it at all. But you on the other hand showed them up, with the great and deep love you have for your wife, the amount of hurt you would have felt under this situation must have been overwhelming for you.
When you are coming out of depression it almost feels as if the world around you is a bit lighter .. less cloudy .. and then you start to sink down in the cycle again .. this happens from time to time during recovery from it .. but the more time goes on .. the less deeper you go down, until you reach the point where you feel lifes problems are managable .. and the only thing keeping you in bed in the morning is cold floor
I wish much streghth for your wife in her recovery and a little for you as well. Perhaps when she is alot better she will realise just how rediculous the whole WTS doctrines are and move on.

i started several weeks ago and all i can say is wow!
what they say is true... it is very adictive.
the natural high is amazing.
Yeah Shin Splints suck elsewhere .. I get them to when I first start doing things like running .. they go away after about a week. Somtimes they are caused by to much pressure on the front of your legs from being a bit over weight. It happens.

what attracted you/parents to jw land to join ???.
did you ever confront your parents and ask why ???.
any answers ..............
Get this .. my mum had a hard life up until one witness woman called on her one day. Mum said she would always hide behind the curtains till they were gone. But this one day the door was wide open and mum was practically already at the door. Mum said she wasn't interested and the old crone called out as mum was closing the door "IF you don't listen, you will die!" Well that caught mums interest enough and now we were all lead into suffering for it.

i read with great interest the scanned pages that were shown on the other thread.
i really want to get a copy of this book for myself.
here's a direct quote from the chapter about satan and his deeeminz:
OMG DOES IT REALLY SAY THAT ??!?!?!?!
HAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA .. Well you know everyone likes porn !!! Just JW's don't admit to it.
You know who else that boy and girl will make happy? Captain winky and Mrs Hymen
Oh dear .. we wouldnt want that.

to that he said, "the reply is not yours to make; it is mine.
his reply was that, "have i not told them?
so, then i asked how it was that i was speaking directly to the father, and not to the son, as i usually do.
The funny and somewhat scary aspect of this post by Aguest is that I can see a Cathy Bates in Misery type woman typing at a keyboard .. and that scares the crap outta me. Oh Lordy Lord.
Aguest you need some cockadoodie medication to go with your dirty bird imagination.

when you look back at it, what irked you most about being a jw?
The fact that no matter how much I serve WTS Jehovah I would never be able to have satisfying sex or a meaningful relationship.

i took my kids on a vacation to disney world...their dream vacation, actually, although it didn't turn out that way.
midway through we get a call that their grandmother (the real one, who was never a dub and who hasn't ever turned her back on the kids or on me even thru my divorce from her son, unlike my own jw mother) is in serious condition at the hospital.
we spent one of our 'vacation' days sitting in a hospital icu waiting room, timing our 15 minute visits so that we could see her, and throughout it all the kids were troopers.
***HUGS*** Dana, you sound like you have a wonderful and beautiful family. I'm very sorry .. life can be tremedously hard at times, words cannot even decribe, but you and your family are in all of our thoughts. My heart feels swollen and heavy for you all. I hope you have all the strength in the world to deal with this hard time.

twickenham stadium.
london.
so i'll drive up there this next coming sunday, stressed to the eyeballs with all the traffic, making wrong turns, panicking when the traffic gets too heavy in central london, wondering if i'm following the right turns, stopping and looking at my a-z, wishing my family we're still with me.
Yet again I haven't bothered to read the rest of the replys to your thread scoobs .. but heres a bit of advice for ya .. grab a same sex partner and go like there aint no tomorrow .. and keep going and keep going .. there isn't such a thing as tomorrow until it's today .. so just enjoy today. Im not sure if your a boi or a grrl but either way .. when your in the throws of passion or just chilling watching tv in their arms .. the rest will fall away and you will wonder why it was such a big deal in the first place.
